Von der hinteren Coverseite

From Albarino to Zinfandel, an essential reference for both the connoisseur and the novice

If we have any interest in wine and its flavors, we have to be interested in the grape variety itself. If we have any interest in how a wine matures and changes with age, we have to know about the potential of the particular grape. If we care about the style of a wine, whether it should be sweet or dry, fizzy or fortified or still, each different grape variety's peculiar talents will be of prime importance. Oz Clarke
