Andrew Jefford, Decanter Magazine No student of wine should be without this book; every wine writer and sommelier should read it several times. Supposing that we all do this, the language and discourse of wine will move forward

Övrig information

Alex Maltman is Emeritus Professor of Earth Sciences at Aberystwyth University, in Wales, U.K. Alongside a long and decorated research and teaching career in Geology, for over forty years he has grown vines and made wine as a hobby.
