Something to look forward to

I am really looking forward to getting my edition of José Vouillamoz' book (Wine Grapes - the most complete guide to vine varieties) on grape varieties.

I wrote about a talk and tasting José gave at the RAW natural wine fair and had the opportunity to chat with him afterwards. I have never met anyone with such a deep knowledge of the subject.

I think anyone who is interested in vines and viti-viniculture should find the book interesting.

It is described as the most complete ever, although it will be interesting to compare it with Pierre Galet's various ampelographic works (see list at Athenaeum).

It is due to be released towards the end of October and can be pre-ordered via the link above.
