The IWC provides extensive coverage of the world of fine wine, written mostly by editor and publisher Stephen D. Tanzer but also calling on the expertise of experienced authorities on the wines of specific regions. Our chief objective is to provide comprehensive yet concise coverage of all of the world's most important wine-producing areas on a regular basis. We name names: the majority of every issue of the publication is devoted to tasting notes on the most important wines of each region covered -anywhere from 500 to 800 wines per issue. In addition to providing extensive tasting notes and vintage evaluations, the IWC also features in-depth, insightful interviews with knowledgeable wine insiders; collecting and investment advice (when to buy and when not to buy); lucid treatment of technical topics and controversial issues; and regular coverage of excellent inexpensive wines, including bottles from regions too often ignored by other wine publications.
"Exceptionally informative. . . . The excellent tasting notes and thorough interviews are among the most reliable and descriptive in the English language. This is an excellent, extremely underrated source for reliable wine information." "When we seek wine advice in print, we place Mr. Tanzer so far ahead of the rest of the pack in credibility, authority and accuracy that we can't even smell the rest of the pack. . . . the Wine Cellar is this country's most useful wine-rating publication for consumers." "Just to say how very much I am enjoying your absorbing newsletter. If only it wasn't so meaty, I could cut down on my reading load." "What I like about the Wine Cellar is that the articles deal in reasonable depth with a couple of major subjects and appear to me to be extremely well balanced and sensible. . . highly interesting and useful." "Interesting and enlightening. . . . an invaluable shopping guide for buyers of fine wines."
"I enjoy your low-key approach to wine evaluation. . . . Some of the other wine publications seem to be getting a little too hysterical." "I just finished reading your May/June issue from cover to cover. I'm still pinching myself. Can writing this good actually be about wine?" "It is so refreshing to read something of substance, intelligently written and reported, where one can actually learn something new . . . you are clearly the best guide." "My wino buddies have been telling me for years that the Wine Cellar is the most trustworthy and discriminating wine publication out there. They were right: I was a blockhead for not subscribing earlier." "Too many of the other wine journals seem to give high marks to over-the-top, high-alcohol wines that cannot be drunk with food. You, on the other hand, appreciate subtlety and complexity, and I applaud your approach." "I find your publication to be well-written, informative and very useful. I'm only sorry that I did not discover you sooner." "I subscribe to all the major wine publications, but yours is the one I most look forward to reading." |
