  • Release :
  • ISBN : 9569946202
  • Pages : 1220 pages

Download or read book Descorchados 2018 written by Patricio Tapia and published by Pehoe Ediciones. This book was released on with total page 1220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Descorchados se publicó por primera vez en Chile en 1999, es decir, técnicamente tenemos dos décadas en el mercado. En un comienzo, eran apenas unos 600 vinos, todos chilenos; para esta versión, hemos probado unas 4.500 muestras, mientras que la guía se ha expandido a otros países, a otros vinos y a otros idiomas. Pero, aunque nos hemos internacionalizado, la idea sigue siendo la misma. Ofrecerles un panorama lo más amplio posible de lo que sucede en la escena de vinos sudamericana, lo que nos tienen que contar los vinos de Brasil, los de Argentina, los de Chile y Uruguay. Y suceden muchas cosas. La cepa país en Chile o criolla en Argentina, la uva que trajeron los conquistadores españoles y que por casi siglo y medio fue ninguneada, hoy revive y da vinos deliciosos, como también revive y da vinos exquisitos otro gran olvidado como el semillón, mientras que el malbec en Argentina deja atrás ya su época oscura de sobre madurez y excesos de madera para mostrar su verdadera cara refrescante. Y lo mismo con el tannat uruguayo, el fiero tannat que este año nos ha maravillado con su energía y frescor. Nos gusta pensar que hoy es el mejor momento para ser periodista de vinos en Sudamérica, y que es un privilegio poder publicar una guía que intente retratar todos esos cambios, toda esa energía. Pero, sobre todo, hoy es un gran momento para ser consumidor de vinos. Nunca antes había sido tan entretenido beber vinos hechos por estos lados, así es que vayan y descorchen. La aventura comienza.

Book The Winemaker   s Dance

    Book Details:
  • Author : Jonathan Swinchatt
  • Publisher : Univ of California Press
  • Release : 2004-09-14
  • ISBN : 0520929209
  • Pages : 247 pages

Download or read book The Winemaker s Dance written by Jonathan Swinchatt and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2004-09-14 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a saying among winemakers that "great wine begins with dirt." Beginning from this intriguing premise, The Winemaker's Dance embarks on an eye-opening exploration of "terroir" in one of the greatest places on earth to grow wine—California's Napa Valley. Jonathan Swinchatt and David G. Howell weave a tale that begins millions of years ago with the clash of continental plates that created the Napa Valley and go on to show how this small region, with its myriad microclimates, complex geologic history, and dedicated winemakers, came to produce world-class wines. A fascinating look at the art and science of winemaking and the only comprehensive book that covers Napa's geology, history, and environment, The Winemaker's Dance will help wine enthusiasts better understand wine talk and wine writing and, most importantly, wine itself. The Winemaker's Dance is animated by the voices of Napa's winemakers talking about their craft. The book also contains two driving tours through the valley that highlight the landscapes and wineries discussed. An array of unique illustrations—including shaded relief maps overlaid with color aerial photographs—provide a new and illuminating look at the region: its bedrock, sediments, soils, sun, wind, and rain. The expansive narrative considers how these elements influence wines from particular vineyards and how specific winemaking practices can bring out or mask aspects of terroir. It concludes with a discussion of the state of the winemaking industry today. Unraveling the complex relationship between the people, the earth, and the vines of Napa Valley, The Winemaker's Dance brings the elusive concept of terroir to a broad audience, adding a vibrant dimension to the experience of the valley's wines. It also provides insights that enhance our understanding of wines and winegrowing regions the world over.

Book Best White Wine on Earth

Download or read book Best White Wine on Earth written by Stuart Pigott and published by ABRAMS. This book was released on 2014-06-17 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A celebrated wine journalist presents a comprehensive, entertaining primer on one of the most beloved wines of our time: Riesling. Diverse, drinkable, aromatic, and refreshing, Riesling is a chameleon among white wines. From its food-friendly flavor and favorable price point to its ability to be either bone-dry or honey-sweet, there are very good reasons to argue that Riesling is not just a popular wine of the moment, but the finest white of our time. In Best White Wine on Earth, wine journalist and Riesling enthusiast Stuart Pigott extols the virtues of his favorite varietal and explores the history behind this magnificent grape. Traveling to the great Riesling-producing regions of the world—from North America to Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and South America—Pigott provides tasting notes, top-rated recommendations, and fascinating insights into how the wine is made, all while making an impassioned case that it is, truly, the best white on earth. Written simply enough for a novice, but with enough expertise and insight to satisfy the most sophisticated collector, this is a must-have guide for any white wine enthusiast.

Book American Rhone

  • ISBN : 0520965140
  • Pages : 351 pages

Download or read book American Rhone written by Patrick J. Comiskey and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2016-10-11 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Thoughtfully conceived and very well written, this is essential somm reading."—The Somm Journal "This is the most important wine book of the year, perhaps in many years."—The Seattle Times "Crisply written, impeccably researched, balanced if fundamentally enthusiastic, scholarly but accessible, and full of unexpected details and characters."—The World of Fine Wine No wine category has seen more dramatic growth in recent years than American Rhône–variety wines. Winemakers are devoting more energy, more acreage, and more bottlings to Rhône varieties than ever before. The flagship Rhône red, Syrah, is routinely touted as one of California’s most promising varieties, capable of tremendous adaptability as a vine, wonderfully variable in style, and highly expressive of place. There has never been a better time for American Rhône wine producers. American Rhône is the untold history of the American Rhône wine movement. The popularity of these wines has been hard fought; this is a story of fringe players, unknown varieties, and longshot efforts finding their way to the mainstream. It’s the story of winemakers gathering sufficient strength in numbers to forge a triumph of the obscure and the brash. But, more than this, it is the story of the maturation of the American palate and a new republic of wine lovers whose restless tastes and curiosity led them to Rhône wines just as those wines were reaching a critical mass in the marketplace. Patrick J. Comiskey’s history of the American Rhône wine movement is both a compelling underdog success story and an essential reference for the wine professional.
