This is the story of how an American lawyer raised on Coca-Cola
caused a revolution in the way wines around the globe are made,
sold, and talked about.
The world's most influential wine critic, Robert M. Parker,
Jr., has dominated the international wine community for the last
quarter century, embodying the triumph of American taste. Using
Parker's story as a springboard, author Elin McCoy offers an
authoritative and unparalleled insider's view of the eccentric
personalities, bitter feuds, controversies, and secrets of the wine
world. She explains how reputations are made and how and why
critics agree and disagree, and she tracks the startling ways wines
are judged, promoted, made, and sold -- while painting a
fascinating portrait of a modern-day cultural colossus who
revolutionized the way the world thinks about wine.
