The World of Natural Wine
Hardback
What It Is, Who Makes It, and Why It Matters
"A definitive (and beautifully illustrated) guide to natural wine. . . . A must read."-Forbes
Natural wine has nothing to hide. Made from grapes alone-organically farmed, then harvested, fermented, aged, and bottled without additives-it's wine that seeks to express, in every sip, its traditional and crucial link to nature. The World of Natural Wine is the book wine lovers need to navigate this movement-because it's about so much more than labels and vintages. Meet the obsessive, often outspoken, winemakers; learn about the regions of France where natural wine culture first appeared and continues to flourish today; and explore natural wine in Spain, Italy, Georgia, and beyond. And just as important: find out what must be "unlearned" to discover the eye-opening pleasures of drinking naturally.Buy now!
