PHILOSOPHY OF WINE

Wine is like humans. You never know how much to respect it and when to despise it, when to love it, and when to begin to hate it, how much generosity it's capable of, and when it becomes a demon. Let us not be more ruthless with the wine than we are with ourselves, and let us recognize in its taste the warmth, the strength, the light, the colour and the mystery, all gifts of nature, crowned with the fragrance of the land, where the gods were invited and found a home. Ad augusta per angusta. Try to stay young like a Beaujolais and grow old like a Burgundy wine!

In a world of increasingly sophisticated consumers, the interest in wine is becoming more and more subtle. And, inevitably, philosophical questions arise. Lucid and analytical essays, written by leading philosophers, linguists, biochemists, producers and wine critics, in a philosophical approach to an eternal experience.

"Is the joy of wine more intense for an expert than for a novice? Is the taste of the wine determined by what is in the glass or by what is on the taster's mind? Can the conclusions drawn by two people, after tasting the same wine, be identical?" wonders Jancis Robinson, a wine authority and publisher of the famous Oxford Companion to Wine, in this invaluable volume for all who take the experience and enjoyment of wine seriously.
