Gerald Asher, who served as "GourmetOCO"s wine editor for thirty
years, has drawn together this selection of his essays, published
in Gourmet and elsewhere, for the collective insight they give into
why a wine should always be an expression of a place and a time.
Guiding the reader through twenty-seven diverse wine regions in
France, Italy, Spain, Germany, and California, he shows how every
wine worth drinking is a reflection of its "terroir"OCoin the
broadest sense of that untranslatable word. In evocative
reminiscences of wines, winemakers, and the meals he has had with
them, he weaves together climate, terrain, and local history,
sharing his knowledge and experience so skillfully that we learn as
we are entertained and come to understand, gradually, that the
meaning and pleasure of a wine lie always in the context of its
origin and in the concurrence of where, how, and with whom we enjoy
it."
