"Since 1980, Platter's by Diners Club has been the winelover's must-have companion for exploring the world of South African wine. The guide's independent ratings and reviews are the result of a best-of-both worlds system of sighted and blind tastings. This 44th edition features over 8,000 wines from more than 900 producers, along with 100-point equivalents for the familiar star ratings, and useful information for learning about and travelling in our beautiful winelands."--Page 4 of cover.
