cover

Hanbook of Enology Volume 1: The Microbiology of Wine and Vinifications.

A new book, translated from French, and thoroughly recommended

cover Hanbook of Enology Volume 2: The Chemistry of Wine Stabilisation and Treatments. Also by Ribereau-Gayon et al., and recently published and translated from French. These books are excellent in-depth texts, and importantly, make accessible a great deal of French research and experience to non-readers/speakers of the French language (ie people like me!)
cover

Wine Science: Principles, Practice, Perception. A very good all-round coverage of wine science, wine production, basic viticultre, and wine sensory assessment, by Ron Jackson.

cover

Wine Microbiology: This book by Ken Fugelsang gives a no-nonsense, and fairly practical coverage of wine microbiology, and the implications for management of pre-fermentation and post-fermentation operations.

Principles and Practices of Winemaking

an excellent technical book from the UC Davis team of Roger Boulton, Vernon Singleton, Linda Bisson and Ralf Kunkee. Thorough coverage of all aspects of modern wine science.

Wine Microbiology and Biotechnology Edited by Graeme Fleet, and each section written by an expert in their field. It's a few years old now, but a classic reference with excellent in-depth information and explanations of the microbial processes, good and bad, that winemakers must deal with.
