Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History and Description of Modern Wines The separation of all knowledge which is of a useful character from abstruse terms or pedantic conjectures, seems demanded by the present call for works which convey as much as possible of fact. Man is become a more active animal than he ever was before. While the mass of human life appears to have received a prolonged duration, it seems given only to stimulate activity, and leaves the impress upon the mind, owing to its redoubled occupation, that years fleet with more than their former rapidity. The wines of the moderns are, there is no doubt, much more perfect than those of the ancients, as far as can be discovered by any thing authentic, which has reached the present time.

Excerpt: ...cliffs which are accessible, are planted with vines. Wherever there is a slip or fall of the cliff leaving a few feet of surface, a mere ledge, to which there is no other mode of access than being let down by a rope, even there the vine is set. The fondness of the Spaniards for this branch of husbandry is so strong as to make them, in some places, neglect every other species of cultivation, thus habituated are they to that which long usage has made to them a second nature. The red wines of this province are not remarkable for quality. The Malvasia made at Sitgas is considered very good, but the manufacture of all kinds is negligent beyond example. The exportation, though considerable, has been chiefly for mingling with other wines of less strength. From Tarragona five thousand pipes of wine, and four hundred of brandy, are annually shipped off. These wines are of good body, but manufactured in the wretched mode of the country. The grapes are used without selection, and no pains are taken in the cellar. Yet the wine finds a tolerable market. Borja produces a luscious white wine. The country about Tarragona, on the road to Barcelona, is almost wholly a wine country. Matarohas some excellent-vines, but the wine as usual is made in the most careless manner, and neither fined nor racked. From Valencia a considerable quantity of Beni Carlos wine is exported, chiefly to France, to mingle with claret for England. It comes from a town of that name, to the eastward of the city of Valencia. There is also a wine made at Beni Carlos, of tolerable quality, consumed upon the spot. The wines of La Torre, Segorbe, and Muviedro, are generous and good. The Beni Carlos wines are also bought up to mix with Port in the English market, and are sent to England...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A field guide to the new world of wine, featuring an overview of today’s most exciting regions and easy-to-use advice on properly tasting wine, discovering under-the-radar gems, and finding the perfect bottle for any occasion. Highlighting wines from old world regions such as France, Italy, Spain, and Germany to new world wines from the United States, Australia, New Zealand, Chile, and more, The Essential Wine Book tells you what to drink and why. Beginning with foundational information about how wine is made, how to taste it, and how to understand terroir, wine expert and journalist Zachary Sussman then gives an overview of the most important and interesting wine regions today—both established and still emerging. For instance, the great French wines of Burgundy and Champagne are already well known, but for affordable bottles you can easily find at your local wine shop, Sussman profiles up-and-coming producers in other regions, including the Jura, Languedoc-Roussillon, and more. In a similar vein, California's Napa Valley has for decades been the source of America's most prestigious wines, but here you'll learn about other areas of the state that are gaining recognition, from Lodi to the Santa Rita Hills. You'll find user-friendly "just the highlights" notes for each region, as well as recommendations for producers and particular bottles to seek out. Diving deep into what makes each region essential and unique, this comprehensive guides gives new wine drinkers and enthusiasts alike an inside track on modern wine culture.
Download or read book Modern Winemaking written by Philip Jackisch and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-10-18 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is a practical, comprehensive guide to winemaking, wines, and wine appreciation, written by an expert uniquely qualified by many years of experience in the field. Looking at winemaking as a craft as well as an art, Philip Jackisch augments a wealth of information and theory with many detailed examples. "It is now possible for anyone with access to grapes or other ingredients of decent quality to make consistently palatable or even excellent wines," he writes. In clear language aimed at the amateur winemaker, Jackisch explains the science behind wine and its application to winemaking. At the same time, he includes important material for commercial winemakers. Jackisch covers each step in the process of winemaking, from growing or purchasing grapes; choosing equipment; fermenting, aging, and storing the wine; to keeping records. By exploring in detail the various factors that affect wine quality, he shows which elements in wine production can be controlled to achieve certain sensory results. Among the other subjects he discusses arc specific types of wine, ways of evaluating wine, common problems in cellar operations and how to prevent or correct them, and wine competitions. Five appendixes supply additional technical information. Since 1985, Modem Winemaking has proven invaluable for winemakers, both commercial and amateur, for wine educators and students, and indeed, for anyone who wants to know more about wine.
