best wine making books

[BeerAlchemist]

I apologize as I'm sure this has been asked a 100 times over, but my search didn't pull anything relevant. So please thoughts on wine making books that are must haves in my library. I'm not too interested in intro books, I'm looking for stuff that really gets into the meat and potatoes of making wine. Chemistry, barrel science, blending and whatever else I need to load up on...just not a recipe, history, and how to make a kit type of book.

You only need one then.

Techniques in Home Winemaking

This is my Bible for Winemaking!

Try this one. It's for grape wines only, but it goes into more detail about the chemistry and testing in wine making.

Thanks guys...I just put the order in at amazon and grabbed Margalit's Concepts in Wine Technology and Concepts in Wine Chemistry, figure that will be a good start.

You could try our sponsor also. "Make tasty wine" It comes with like 1 year of support from a pro Napa winemaker.
