Publishers Text

This guide takes the reader on a grand tour of the wines of the world, as the authors visit vineyards and interview the vintners about everything from growing strategies, quality control methods and marketing plans, to the importance of the weather in grape growing. Coverage is provided in the following areas: wine and health - examining the extensive analysis about wine consumption in conjunction with robust health; wine and food - supplying a systematic approach to pairing food and wine with Power to Power charts ; wine service - giving advice on how to serve wine without sounding like a wine "snob"; wine production; and wine purchase and storage. The text explores wines country-by-country, and also examines attitudes toward wine, consumption, production, influence and laws. There are chapters on wine management, wine list development and wine marketing.
