The reference book that Australian wine has been waiting for.

There’s never been a more exciting time to drink Australian wine. Centuries of innovation and determination have led to an era of exceptional achievement in Australia, yet it is a country whose vinous output is not matched by its scholarship. Until now. How to Drink Australian brings together global experts to answer its namesake question, offering sweeping, practical, and compelling insight on all aspects of Australian wine: exhaustive analysis of every significant wine region, stunning and detailed original maps, bespoke illustrations and artwork, individual wine recommendations, hundreds of producer profiles, a fold-out grape table, and much more, all curated with a reverence to Australia’s first custodians. How to Drink Australian is the modern wine book that Australia (and a world of wine drinkers) has been waiting for.

  • Peter Gago

    A refreshing take on Australian wine. Colour, facts, figures, personalities – all masterfully and sensitively interconnected.

  • Max Allen

    Capturing all the complexities of wine in contemporary Australia is a massive job, but Jane and Jon and their team of collaborators have absolutely nailed it: How to Drink Australian is an exhaustive, insightful, invaluable new guide to what’s going on right now in the vineyards and cellars – and, crucially, the hearts and minds – of winegrowers right across this dynamic country.

  • Raj Parr

    How to Drink Australian is INCREDIBLE. The most
    comprehensive book on the best Australian wines. It’s not an easy feat to bring together so much information, diving deep into the intricacies of the great regions, producers and terroirs of Australia. A must have on every wine lover’s book shelf.

  • Neil Perry

    The wine book that the Australian wine industry deserves. Insightful, intelligent and in depth…An instant classic.

  • Bobby Stuckey

    As someone who has followed the Australian wine scene since 1992, it is about time for this great book by Jane Lopes and Jonathan Ross. So much has changed, not just in the past 30 years – the last 10 alone have been revelatory. To have them walk us through these changes and these wine regions, is so timely.

  • Victoria James

    As an American sommelier, Australia was really one of those places that I thought was mostly full of funny critters and over-hyped wines. That is, until I met Jane and Jon – they showed me that this is a land of terroir and growers who rival many of their European counterparts. This book further solidified me falling in love with this wild continent so rich with history and a new generation of wines. An important read for both wine geeks and novices alike!
