"I want my wines to tell a good story. I want them natural and most
of all, like my dear friends, I want them to speak the truth even
if we argue," says Alice Feiring. Join her as she sets off on her
one-woman crusade against the tyranny of homogenization, wine
consultants, and, of course, the 100-point scoring system of a
certain all-powerful wine writer. Traveling through the ancient
vineyards of the Loire and Champagne, to Piedmont and Spain, she
goes in search of authentic barolo, the last old-style rioja, and
the tastiest new terroir-driven champagnes. She reveals just what
goes into the average bottle--the reverse osmosis, the yeasts and
enzymes, the sawdust and oak chips--and why she doesn't find much
to drink in California. And she introduces rebel winemakers who are
embracing old-fashioned techniques and making wines with
individuality and soul.
No matter what your palate, travel the wine world with Feiring and
you'll have to ask yourself: What do I really want in my
glass?
