Download or read book Reverse Wine Snob written by Jon Thorsen and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2015-06-16 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most rational people don’t pay $40 for $20 items. And yet with wine, it happens all the time. Wine can be an expensive hobby. Founder of the popular site ReverseWineSnob,com, Jon Thorsen is an unapologetic frugal wine consumer. He flips wine snobbery on its head by pushing a $20 or less mantra. Reverse Wine Snob is designed to help wine drinkers stop wasting money and get the most satisfaction out of their drinking dollars. It reveals Thorsen’s Ten Tenets of Reverse Wine Snobbery—ten beliefs that eliminate myths about wine—as well as a unique rating system that includes the cost of the bottle so that there is satisfaction in both taste and price. In Jon’s unique system, the more expensive a wine, the better it must taste. Reverse Wine Snob explains: The number one rule all wine drinkers should follow, no matter what the wine snobs say. How to shop for wine at stores like the nation’s #1 wine retailer Costco and Trader Joe’s. The regions and varieties of wine that give the best value. Why the price of a wine has nothing to do with its taste. Why the distribution system in the US is broken which costs you money and limits your wine choices. Tons of Jon’s very favorite wine picks. Jon dapples in every kind of wine from $10 kitchen sink blends to the $20 “Saturday Night Splurge,” so delicious it’s worth twice the price. Reverse Wine Snob brings plain old common sense to the wine industry and encourages wine lovers to explore the world of inexpensive quality wine.

Download or read book Wines of Chile written by Pierre Dubois and published by . This book was released on 2020-03-31 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Chilean wine industry is known for its versatility, with almost every major type of vino represented. While the country produces several varieties of white wine, Chile is probably most recognized for its selection of reds. In terms of volume, cabernet has long served as the country's bestseller, but Chile is also known for producing two very different types of syrah, made from dark, flavourful grapes.For years, Chile produced large quantities of what was thought to be merlot. In the 1990s, wine enthusiasts from France spotted the grapes used for this wine in a Chilean vineyard and were able to identify them as carmenere, rather than merlot. The deep, dark purple carmenere grape was once grown throughout France, but a devastating insect infestation in the 19th century virtually eliminated these vines. Luckily, the Spanish had already planted clippings in Chile, where they were rediscovered more than a century later. Since then, carmenere has become Chile's signature wine.

"Through the book I hope the reader can see Chile's beauty and understand how Chilean wineries produce wines of such great character,? explains Sara Mathews. ?Chile is unique because of its geography, its culture and its people. I have tried to portray this uniqueness through my photographs, with each chapter showing a different aspect of each wine region. Some chapters, such as ?The Flow?, are more conceptual, embracing mountain streams and flowing wine. Other chapters show the majesty of the mountains or the teams of people who create Chile's fine, distinctive wines.? "As global awareness of the quality and beauty of Chilean wines increases, so does the curiosity about this premium winegrowing nation. This is the first comprehensive photo essay of Chilean vineyards, wineries and people," explains publisher Elliott MackeySara Matthews has specialized in wine photography for editorial and corporate clients since 1986 and has photographed in the U.S., France, Italy, Spain, Switzerland, Cyprus and Argentina as well as Chile. Her work has appeared in The New York Times, Saveur, Food & Wine, Newsweek, Departures, Cigar Aficionado, Food Arts, The Wine Spectator and USA Today. She has published several other books, including The Wines of Long Island (1993), Guide to the Hamptons & Long Island Wine Country (1995) and A Village In The Vineyards (1993).
