Chicago Tribune writes: 6 books that make wine taste better… Exploring Wine Regions: Argentina by Michael C. Higgins. This slick soft cover has the look of a well organized travel guide, with short, focused text entries and scores of glossy photographs. It offers a great overview not only of world-famous Mendoza, but also lesser-known growing areas all the way down to Rio Negro, the world’s southernmost wine region. As a bonus, the book offers culinary and cultural insights, plus travel tips. It is the first in a series, with future books planned for Italy, Spain, France, Chile and Australia, among other countries. (Exploring Wine Regions, $34.95)
