"A great primer. . . . If you're new to the
natural/organic/biodynamic wine debates, Authentic Wine is the
place to start."--Huffington Post
"This is one of the most engaging, thoughtful and enlightening
books on contemporary wine. . . . A manifesto for an industry
looking to shape its future."--Wine And Spirits
Naturalness is a hot topic in the wine world. But what exactly is a
"natural wine"? For this pioneering book, best-selling wine writer
Jamie Goode teams up with winemaker and Master of Wine Sam Harrop
to explore the wide range of issues surrounding authenticity in
wine. They begin by emphasizing that wine's diversity, one of its
strengths, is currently under threat from increasingly homogenized
commercial wines that lack a sense of place. Drawing on a global
array of examples and anecdotes, Goode and Harrop examine complex
concepts--terroir, biodynamics, and sustainability--in clear
language. They also discuss topics including cultured and wild
yeasts, wine "faults," the carbon footprint of the wine industry,
"natural" as a marketing concept, and more. "Authentic Wine"
illuminates a subject of great interest to wine producers,
consumers, and anyone wondering where the wine industry is
headed.
