Book Reviews of Wines of South America
Book Review: THE book on South American wines.
Summary: 5 Stars
Not only is this book as comprehensive as one would hope with respect to information and detail but it is also a lively read.
Waldin has clearly mastered his subject. In a world of 'celebrity' wine writers it's very reassuring to come across one that has actually been to the places about which he is writing. Waldin is obviously not a writer to 'toe the line' and it is clear that he isn't merely a mouthpiece for one of the larger chateaux or wine 'conglomerates'.
The addition of some wonderful photographs and detailed maps only enhance what is a must have for any serious or even amateur wine buff.
Summary of Wines of South America
How have wineries become so much more than mere production facilities, bringing wine to life in some of the world?s most striking architecture? Award-winning wine writer Peter Richards has traveled and researched extensively to uncover the intriguing story of iconic wineries around the world and how they came to be as they are. He takes readers on a visual tour of 80 of the world?s most striking, fascinating, and impressive wineries, from seventeen wine countries and regions. In addition to discussing both wine and architecture, he includes producer fact boxes with contact details, wine tips, and visitor information, plus a world map that makes locating the wineries easy. With more than 200 inspiring color photographs, this is an illuminating book for wine lovers, armchair tourists, and travelers.
