“This sharp critique of French winemakers, and Bordeaux’s Saint Emilion region in particular, caused quite a stir when it was published in France in 2014” (Publishers Weekly). Already provoking debate and garnering significant attention across France and within the wine world, Vino Business is a “truly eye-opening exposé” of the dark side of French wine by acclaimed investigative journalist Isabelle Saporta (Booklist). In recent decades, Bordeaux has come under the influence of large-scale international investors. Unafraid to name names, Saporta sheds a harsh light on how this influence has corrupted the region’s centuries-old traditions of winemaking excellence. She uncovers how the classification system was manipulated in 2012 to ensure that the wines of Saint-Émilion—Bordeaux’s most prestigious appellation—were certified premier grand cru classé A. Giving extra points to a chateaux for the size of its parking lot, the quality of the wine itself counts for only thirty percent of that coveted rank. In other chapters, Saporta investigates issues of wine labeling and pesticides, and draws comparisons to Champagne, Burgundy, and the rest of the wine world. “This fast-paced, provocative read” is a cri de coeur for the lost values of traditional winemaking (Dave DeSimone, Pittsburgh Tribune Review).

Have you ever thought about taking your wine experience to a higher level? If you have ever read a wine review and wished you could describe the aromas and tastes of wine like that, this is the book for you. Ten years after retirement, but with a lifetime of enjoying wine, Bob Bryden decided to do exactly that. At the age of 70, after thirteen months of concentrated study and blind tasting wines, he passed the Certified Sommelier examination administered by the prestigious Court of Master Sommeliers. He now teaches others to elevate their wine experience through the same techniques that sommeliers use to evaluate and buy wine for restaurants and retail wine shops. The Book provides a basic step-by-step entry-level program designed for any size group to learn the techniques needed to evaluate the quality of a wine. With clear, simple explanations backed up with photos of how each wine will look in your glass, the book makes learning fun. The author's own experience belies the thought that anyone is too old to learn the techniques of tasting wine like a professional. He also knows that learning with like-minded friends speeds the process, makes it more enjoyable, and leads to a higher probability of success. Gather some friends and get started today.

Winner of the prestigious André Simon Drink Book Award The first definitive reference book to describe, region-by-region, how the great wines of Europe should taste. This will be the go-to guide for aspiring sommeliers, wine aficionados who want to improve their blind tasting skills, and amateur enthusiasts looking for a straightforward and visceral way to understand and describe wine. In this seminal addition to the wine canon, noted experts Rajat Parr and Jordan Mackay share everything they've learned in their decades of tasting wine. The result is the most in-depth study of the world's greatest wine regions ever published. There are books that describe the geography of wine regions. And there are books that describe the way basic wines and grapes should taste. But there are no books that describe the intricacies of the way wines from various subregions, soils, and appellations should taste. Now, for the first time ever, you can learn about the differences between wines from the 7 grand crus and 40 premier crus of Chablis, or the terroirs in Barolo, Champagne, and Bordeaux. Paying attention to styles, winemakers, soils, and the most cutting-edge of trends, this book explains how to understand the wines of the world not in the classical way, but in the modern way--appellation by appellation, soil by soil, technique by technique--making it an essential reference and instant classic.
