Publisher's Summary

Actor and wine expert Julian Curry has devised a unique audiobook guide to wine which takes the listener to the heart of winemaking and wine drinking in a clear but light-hearted manner. However rich and complex the subject of wine may be, he insists it is also hugely rewarding and great fun.

Curry's informative and entertaining program begins with a description of work in the vineyard and cellar. It outlines the many choices faced by grape-grower and winemaker, resulting in the variety of different styles of wine produced. It continues with wine's journey from winery to gullet, with advice on cellaring, buying, serving food-matching and tasting. And it concludes with a lengthy section devoted to all the major wine regions, in the Old World and the New.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

Wine, with great English witt and passion

A great book providing a good introduction. Read in an engaging manner which expresses passion and good english witt. Julian needs to learn how to pronounce Otago, but his efforts of french, italian etc... were very impressive. I thoroughly enjoyed this book.

Inspired and educated

great and well read broad overview of world wine. glad I bought this one. I'm in the grape growing industry and still got a lot out of the book. Does inspire travel though to now experience this first hand. Info is good and you will surely want to follow it up by sampling for yourself all the hallmark wines you have learned about.
