Download or read book Postmodern Winemaking written by Clark Smith and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2013-11-02 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Postmodern Winemaking, Clark Smith shares the extensive knowledge he has accumulated in engaging, humorous, and erudite essays that convey a new vision of the winemaker's craft--one that credits the crucial roles played by both science and art in the winemaking process. Smith, a leading innovator in red wine production techniques, explains how traditional enological education has led many winemakers astray--enabling them to create competent, consistent wines while putting exceptional wines of structure and mystery beyond their grasp. Great wines, he claims, demand a personal and creative engagement with many elements of the process. His lively exploration of the facets of postmodern winemaking, together with profiles of some of its practitioners, is both entertaining and enlightening.

Book Art of Wine Making Business Startup

Download or read book Art of Wine Making Business Startup written by Alberto Ricci and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2020-06-13 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Would you like to learn how to make Wine at home and perhaps start your own winery one day, be your own boss, and make 6 figures a year doing something you love? What if I told you that it's easier than it sounds? This guide will teach you everything you need to know to make, bottle, and sell your own exclusive brand of wine and become a successful Winemaker. Wine is timeless, classy, and fun. You need not be a sommelier to know how to make and sell unique, glamourous, and delicious wine. Wine is also easy to sell because the market is vast, and wine is always in demand. If you are reading this, then it is safe to assume you are interested in wine making at home. Wine making is a fun activity that is not only affordable to start but could also be profitable if you just put in your best effort. This vastly updated second edition of "Art of Wine Making Business Startup, 2nd Edition, How to Start a Million Dollar Success from Home" contains even more vital information than my first edition. I have learned so much since publishing my first attempt that I know you will benefit even more from this second publishing. I started making wine almost 15 years ago, but it wasn't necessarily something that I expected I would be doing for the long term. I started making my wine out of sheer curiosity. Today, I am semi-retired, and my wine business is absolutely booming. The frustration I have had with wines over the years got me thinking, what if I tried to make wine myself? Surely I could do somewhat better than all those other people who make wine if I just put in a good amount of effort into the process. It was a crazy idea, but I figured that every smart idea in the world starts out of something crazy, right? I also figured it would be fun to see just what types of wine I could produce. I have seen so many brands popping up selling wines of all sorts I did extensive research and found out that there is not much information out there on how to make it all blend just right, so I set out to test various methods and recipes, I would tweak this and tweak that, and in about a year's time, I finally realized, I have perfected the process. Eventually, I started making even more wine. Today, I have a small operation where I sell wines to local businesses and restaurants in my area. Most books out there will show you the process, the ingredients you need, and how it all works, but none of them show you how to make it just right. If you learn how to make a cheap $5 bottle of wine, you might as well just buy that and not spend your valuable time and effort. On the other hand, what if you knew how to make that $100 bottle of wine? Wouldn't that be worth spending your time and energy on? This book is divided into two parts. In the first part, I show you how to make wine at home. Next, in the second part, I discuss how to sell your wine and start a small business. You will learn: In part 1- What you need to start making wine Understanding the different types of wine Learning and understanding Grapes and other fruits and their variations Legal points relating to making wine Getting the equipment for winemaking safe and ready for use The fermentation process Storing wine properly The aging process In part 2- Why and how to sell your wine 6 essential aspects of selling wine Timeline for starting your wine business The legal framework for your business Understanding profit margin and markup How to promote your wine This title is currently available with the Kindle Unlimited program.

Book Uncultivated

    Book Details:
  • Author : Andy Brennan
  • Publisher : Chelsea Green Publishing
  • Release : 2019-06-17
  • ISBN : 1603588450
  • Pages : 290 pages

Download or read book Uncultivated written by Andy Brennan and published by Chelsea Green Publishing. This book was released on 2019-06-17 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The best wine book I read this year was not about wine. It was about cider"--Eric Asimov, New York Times, on Uncultivated Today, food is being reconsidered. It’s a front-and-center topic in everything from politics to art, from science to economics. We know now that leaving food to government and industry specialists was one of the twentieth century’s greatest mistakes. The question is where do we go from here. Author Andy Brennan describes uncultivation as a process: It involves exploring the wild; recognizing that much of nature is omitted from our conventional ways of seeing and doing things (our cultivations); and realizing the advantages to embracing what we’ve somehow forgotten or ignored. For most of us this process can be difficult, like swimming against the strong current of our modern culture. The hero of this book is the wild apple. Uncultivated follows Brennan’s twenty-four-year history with naturalized trees and shows how they have guided him toward successes in agriculture, in the art of cider making, and in creating a small-farm business. The book contains useful information relevant to those particular fields, but is designed to connect the wild to a far greater audience, skillfully blending cultural criticism with a food activist’s agenda. Apples rank among the most manipulated crops in the world, because not only do farmers want perfect fruit, they also assume the health of the tree depends on human intervention. Yet wild trees live all around us, and left to their own devices, they achieve different forms of success that modernity fails to apprehend. Andy Brennan learned of the health and taste advantages of such trees, and by emulating nature in his orchard (and in his cider) he has also enjoyed environmental and financial benefits. None of this would be possible by following today’s prevailing winds of apple cultivation. In all fields, our cultural perspective is limited by a parallel proclivity. It’s not just agriculture: we all must fight tendencies toward specialization, efficiency, linear thought, and predetermined growth. We have cultivated those tendencies at the exclusion of nature’s full range. If Uncultivated is about faith in nature, and the power it has to deliver us from our own mistakes, then wild apple trees have already shown us the way.
