Australian Wine: Regions and Rituals is an invaluable introductory guide for all students in the tourism and hospitality sectors who require a background knowledge and understanding of the great variety and diversity of Australian wine. The lively and informative style also makes it highly accessible for those interested in Australian wine or undertaking short courses in wine appreciation. The book features a foreword by Len Evans OBE.

Drawing on many years' experience in teaching food and wine courses in Australia, Jim McMahon introduces the main wine growing regions of Australia and highlights their particular yields, characteristics, and climatic and soil conditions. He then concentrates on the many other related aspects of wine making and wine appreciation, including some of the well known rituals.

The inclusion of revision tests and a complete glossary make Australian Wine ideal for student use.
