Download or read book Wine Wars II written by Mike Veseth and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2022-07-01 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here’s the inside scoop on the wine world. Globalization has pushed back the borders of the wine world, creating a complex, interconnected market where Old World and New World wines and producers compete head to head. Writing with wit and verve, Mike Veseth (a.k.a. the Wine Economist) tells the compelling story of the war between the market forces that are redrawing the world wine map and the terroirists who resist them. This is the battle for the future of wine—and for its soul. The fight isn't just over bottles bought and sold, however; power and taste are also at stake. Who will call the shots in the wine market of the future? Who will set the price? Whose palate will prevail? Veseth masterfully brings all of these questions together in the only book on the wine business written for all lovers of wine. Wine Wars II begins by exploring wine globalization, where readers follow “Missionaries, Migrants, and Market Reforms” to faraway New Zealand and learn how to unlock the secrets of their local retail “Wine Wall” by mastering the “DaVino Code.” Globalization brings a world of wine to our doorsteps. Commodification helps us make sense of the resulting embarrassment of riches, but at a cost. Readers must decide if they are Martians or Wagnerians, consider why “They Always Buy the Ten Cent Wine,” and then probe the puzzle of “Outlaws, Prisoners, and the Great Escape.” Who stands in the way of the global wine market's assault on wine's very soul? The“Revenge of the Terroirists!” Resistance is not futile, because 'We Are All Terroirists Now,” but that doesn't mean the future of wine is secure. A final section explores “Wine's Triple Crisis,” environmental crisis plus economic crisis, plus identity crisis. Taken together these crises pose the most serious threat to wine as we know and love it. Each section of Wine Wars II ends with a suggested wine tasting that invites readers to experience the book's ideas and arguments with all their senses by sampling a few carefully chosen wines. Can the soul of wine survive – and thrive – in this unfriendly environment? You'll have to read Wine Wars II to find out!

Written with verve and appreciation for all things wine, Extreme Wine will surprise and delight readers.
Download or read book The impact of New World wines upon the UK market written by Johannes Landsperger and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2009-07-22 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2007 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 1,0, Edinburgh Napier University (Business Management), language: English, abstract: This dissertation aims to reveal the impact of the New World wines upon the UK market which necessitates an examination of all factors that might have strengthened the competitive position of the New World compared to the Old as well as the evaluation of current and past market figures and also broad primary research in order to affirm or query the findings. The observation of leading author’s general view about New World wines has shown that the great differences between both worlds have started to blur as both regions are increasingly willing to learn from each other and to adopt the other’s wine producing and marketing methods which is particularly vital for all Old World suppliers performances. A PEST analysis and an analysis of competitive advantages have revealed that the New World suppliers are generally better positioned to respond to current challenges and to perform successfully on the UK wine market. The investigation of legal circumstances in terms of oenological practices and label requirements indicates that despite of the very strict appellation systems of the Old World both regions act under similar legal conditions and that the Old World has to cope with some minor legal disadvantages which are mainly due to traditional values and ideologies. The comparison of the reactions of France and Germany as two selected Old World producers gave information that only France’s wine industry is really threatened by the New World and goes many ways to defeat or regain market share. An observation of the application of wine brands has shown that this is undoubtedly one of the leading key factors of which the New World has taken much more advantage. A blind wine tasting which emerged the New World as victorious in all comparisons and a comprehensive survey which investigated consumer purchase behaviour have, with some exceptions, largely underlined these current market findings. The appearance of the New World has changed the market structure, the consumer behaviour, the face of wine and is certainly not only a trend but now the leading power on the market.

Download or read book Around the World in Eighty Wines written by Mike Veseth and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-11-01 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inspired by Jules Verne’s classic adventure tale, celebrated editor-in-chief of The Wine Economist Mike Veseth takes his readers Around the World in Eighty Wines. The journey starts in London, Phileas Fogg’s home base, and follows Fogg’s itinerary to France and Italy before veering off in search of compelling wine stories in Syria, Georgia, and Lebanon. Every glass of wine tells a story, and so each of the eighty wines must tell an important tale. We head back across Northern Africa to Algeria, once the world’s leading wine exporter, before hopping across the sea to Spain and Portugal. We follow Portuguese trade routes to Madeira and then South Africa with a short detour to taste Kenya’s most famous Pinot Noir. Kenya? Pinot Noir? Really! The route loops around, visiting Bali, Thailand, and India before heading north to China to visit Shangri-La. Shangri-La? Does that even exist? It does, and there is wine there. Then it is off to Australia, with a detour in Tasmania, which is so cool that it is hot. The stars of the Southern Cross (and the title of a familiar song) guide us to New Zealand, Chile, and Argentina. We ride a wine train in California and rendezvous with Planet Riesling in Seattle before getting into fast cars for a race across North America, collecting more wine as we go. Pause for lunch in Virginia to honor Thomas Jefferson, then it’s time to jet back to London to tally our wines and see what we have learned. Why these particular places? What are the eighty wines and what do they reveal? And what is the surprise plot twist that guarantees a happy ending for every wine lover? Come with us on a journey of discovery that will inspire, inform, and entertain anyone who loves travel, adventure, or wine.
