Description: Today's dynamic wine culture calls for a different kind of wine book. The Wine Savant is just that: punchy, polemical, and brimming with insights to educate and entertain beginning wine drinkers and seasoned oenophiles alike. Never has the wine world had so much to offer, and never have smart decisions about value, quality, grape, and season been so difficult to make. In The Wine Savant, Michael Steinberger tramps through the world of contemporary wine | ??from three-buck Chuck and bucket-list Bordeaux to bottle speculators and biodynamic wineries | ??to give the inside scoop on the key concerns facing the new generation of wine lovers: ● Why is California suddenly cool again? ● What's really the difference between a 95-point wine and a 94-point wine? ● Why is Burgundy ascendant and Bordeaux suddenly so passé? ● What's a biodynamic wine, what's a natural wine, and should you care? ● Do food and wine pairings still matter? Featuring expert buying guides | ??including the New Kings of California and the World's Great $25-and-Under Bottles | ??and tips on tough-to-pair cuisines like Indian and Japanese, The Wine Savant is the perfect guide to today's often-bewildering realm of choice: ferociously opinionated and committed body and soul to enjoying every glass.

    Description: A definitive (and beautifully illustrated) guide to natural wine. A must read.-Forbes Natural wine has nothing to hide. Made from grapes alone-organically farmed, then harvested, fermented, aged, and bottled without additives-it's wine that seeks to express, in every sip, its traditional and crucial link to nature. The World of Natural Wine is the book wine lovers need to navigate this movement-because it's about so much more than labels and vintages. Meet the obsessive, often outspoken, winemakers; learn about the regions of France where natural wine culture first appeared and continues to flourish today; and explore natural wine in Spain, Italy, Georgia, and beyond. And just as important: find out what must be unlearned to discover the eye-opening pleasures of drinking naturally.

  • Waterstones French Wine

    Price: £25.00

    Brand: Waterstones

     

    Description: A fascinating book that belongs on every wine lover's bookshelf. | ?? The Wine Economist It's a book to read for its unstoppable torrent of fascinating and often surprising details. | ?? Andrew Jefford, Decanter For centuries, wine has been associated with France more than with any other country. France remains one of the world's leading wine producers by volume and enjoys unrivaled cultural recognition for its wine. If any wine regions are global household names, they are French regions such as Champagne, Bordeaux, and Burgundy. Within the wine world, products from French regions are still benchmarks for many wines. French Wine is the first synthetic history of wine in France: from Etruscan, Greek, and Roman imports and the adoption of wine by beer-drinking Gauls to its present status within the global marketplace. Rod Phillips places the history of grape growing and winemaking in each of the country's major regions within broad historical and cultural contexts. Examining a range of influences on the wine industry, wine trade, and wine itself, the book explores religion, economics, politics, revolution, and war, as well as climate and vine diseases. French Wine is the essential reference on French wine for collectors, consumers, sommeliers, and industry professionals.
