Philipp Blom: The Wines of Austria
For each region the author lists the top growers, whose wine are representative of the best in Austria. He explores these estates and their wine-makers in fascinating detail and includes some of his own wine recommentations.
Philip Blom was first introduced to Austrian wines in the early nineties whilst studying in Vienna, and since then they have become something close to an obsession for him. In his book he presents a persuasive case for these stunning wines, already discovered by collectors in the USA and soon to be asserting themselves on the international stage. As far as Philipp Blom is concerned, Austrian wines are the wine world's best-kept secret.
