Rating: - Read about wines you may never taste
It stands to reason that people will critisize this magazine. It is a little high end and might appeal more to the pompous oenophile than the casual wine drinker. It can be a little overwhelming for the person just getting into wine, with so many opinions, so many suggestions and so many choices. This oversized , glossy, colorful magazine helps.

Rating: - Wine spectator subscription.

Rating: - A standby for wine lovers.
For those oenophiles in your life, Food & Wine would probably be at the top of their list of favorites, but this is a strong second.

Rating: - Have yet to receive ONE issue!
I ordered Wine Spectator as a Christmas gift for my Husband. The first issue was supposed to arrive by February 12. It is March 31 and we have yet to receive the first issue. I have emailed and called Amazon to inquire about the missing issues and have not heard back. I would recommend purchasing this subscription elsewhere.

***UPDATE*** it is now May and we FINALLY received our first issue. But this was only after MANY calls!! Don't buy this magazine from here.

This was actually a gift for my husband, but he was very pleased. He had been getting it gratis and loves the magazine. The order was filled expeditiously and we have already received copies.
