Wine books
This is probably not as appealing as a tasty glass of wine, yet reading about wine can be stimulating, and in any case educational. From the vast plethora of wine literature, we present new and significant publications, along with recommended classics.
Wein | Wine: Genesis
WINE GENESIS takes up where the wine book VINARIA left off. VINARIA has long been out of print and for this reason significant parts of the original book have been reproduced.
In this book, wine lovers will discover fresh features, like the descriptions of the work in the vineyard and the complete process of winemaking from month to month as the year unfolds. And one of its most important features is the "ampelography" - the study of grape varieties.
Willi Klinger, Managing Director of the Austrian Wine Marketing Board: "No one has ever produced such a fine photographic record of the genesis of wine from the vine to the glass as the Austrian Peter Oberleithner... Nor has the work of the grower ever been so completely and accurately observed as in this book."
