Got this for my birthday. So far I like it but there are a few things I dont. First let me say that the beginning of the book consists of information on tasting, smelling, reading labels etc.. It is only mildly helpful information. The book is then divided into reds, whites, and sparkling wines. For me, it is difficult to find the section I want. The sections are not clearly marked throughout each section. I end up flipping through the book searching to find if I am in the whites or reds section. I wish they had color coded the edges of the pages, or even just noted what section you are in at the top of each page..something like that. What is included on each page I think is just the right amount of information. The type of wine, winery, vintage, origin. Space for descriptions of the aroma/bouqet, color, flavor, and overall impression. There is also space for the date, price you paid, where you drank it, and whome you shared it with. It is true there is no room for wine labels, but I don't think it was meant for that, it is a smaller book, meant to be able to take to restraunts etc.. I agree with the previous reviewer, for a travel wine log, the size is a little awkward as it is just about too big to fit in my pocket comfortably. Usually my wife must put it in her purse. Overall I am happy. I think this is an excellent wine log for those who enjoy wine and have an interest in keeping track of the wines they have tasted. Probably is not detailed enough for the serious wine enthusiast. And as I said, the size is borderline too big for pocket travel. But I am keeping it and using it and enjoying it
Good wine journal

This wine journal is hardcover but fairly compact in size, so you could bring it with you in a purse to a restaurant or wine store. The descriptions of wine are clear and informative. The categories that you complete are relevant, and there's space for you to write in your own additional comments.
Well Organized, Great Insights

This is my favorite Wine Log. It is organized by wine type, which allows me to readily find the wine at a later date. The data requested for each wine seems very relavent to me. Lastely, the glossary in the back is very helpful in descriptive adjectives about the taste/look (etc.) of wines.A great book!
