Book excerpt: Excerpt from Official Report of the Session of the International Congress of Viticulture: Held in Recital Hall at Festival Hall, Panama-Pacific International Exposition, San Francisco Cal;, July 12 and 13, 1915 The International Congress of Viticulture of 1915 was held at San Francisco under the authority of the Permanent International Commission, in accordance with a resolution of that body voted on June 11, 1913, at Ghent, Belgium. At that time no one anticipated that by reason of a world-wide war the European members would be unable to attend. The international character of the Congress was preserved as much as possible by the co-operation of the various countries concerned, whose governments accepted the invitation to furnish representatives from among their European commissioners. The members attending the Congress and the papers presented were almost entirely American. The absence of most of the active members of former Congresses, and the lack of their valuable papers and discussion, were serious deficiencies. The Congress, however, was valuable as an indication of the progress and extent of viticulture in the United States and the report should be of interest to the viticulturists of the world as a symposium of American viticulture. The activities of the Congress consisted of meetings in San Francisco, at which the papers were presented and discussed, and of excursions to some of the most important viticultural centers of California. The papers presented covered a wide range of viticultural interests. They included seven addresses on historical, educational and commercial aspects of viticulture; five on various cultural topics; seven special regional studies representing most of the grape-growing regions of the United States; fifteen studies of fungous diseases, injurious insects and of methods of control; nine papers on the chemistry, technics and products of viticulture and several miscellaneous papers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The delight of Bacchus, wine has ever been man's solace and joy. Growing out of the poorest soil, the wild grape was tamed and blended over millennia to produce a royal beverage. But the nineteenth century brought a near revolution in the production of wine, and democracy in its consumption; technology made wine an industry, while improved living standards put it on the people's dinner table. The vintners of France and Italy frantically bought land and planted grapes in their attempt to profit from the golden age of wine. But the very technology which made possible swift transportation, with all its benefits to winemen, brought utter devastation from America—the phylloxera aphids—and only when France and Italy had replanted their entire vineyards on American stock did they again supply the thirsty cities and discriminating elite. In an exhaustive examination Professor Loubère follows the wine production process from practices recommended long ago by the Greeks and Romans through the technical changes that occurred in the nineteenth century. He shows how technology interacted with economic, social, and political phenomena to produce a new viticultural world, but one distinct in different regions. Winemen espoused a wide range of politics and economics depending on where they lived, the grapes they grew, and the markets they sought. While a place remained for carefully hand-raised wine, the industry had, by the end of the century, turned to mass production, though it was capable of great quality control and consistency from year to year. The author uses a wide range of sources, including archives and contemporary accounts. The volume contains extensive figures, tables, graphs, and maps.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the mid-1860s, grapevines in southeastern France inexplicably began to wither and die. Jules-ƒmile Planchon, a botanist from Montpellier, was sent to investigate. He discovered that the vine roots were covered in microscopic yellow insects. What they were and where they had come from was a mystery. The infestation advanced with the relentlessness of an invading army and within a few years had spread across Europe, from Portugal to the Crimea. The wine industry was on the brink of disaster. The French government offered a prize of three hundred thousand gold francs for a remedy. Planchon believed he had the answer and set out to prove it. Gripping and intoxicating, The Botanist and the Vintner brings to life one of the most significant, though little-known, events in the history of wine.
