I have recently received a review copy of Jonathan Ray's 64-page new book: How to buy wine – all you need to know to choose the right bottle every time published by Ryland Peters & Small £9.99
I was dismayed to read on the Loire page:
'Not so good for: Big, full flavoured reds. Forget it, there are none.'
Jonathan I'll give you that there aren't any Barossa style reds but there are plenty of full flavoured reds including some from your recommended producers such as Filliatreau and Vacheron (La Belle Dame).'
Very disappointing to see such nonsense continues to be written and published.
