Vino Italiano by Joseph Bastianich

Vino Italiano by Joseph Bastianich

At one time, Italian wines conjured images of cheap Chianti in straw-wrapped bottles. More recently, expensive "Super Tuscans" have been the rage. But between these extremes lay a bounty of delicious, moderately priced wines that belong in every wine drinker's repertoire.

Vino Italiano is the only comprehensive and authoritative American guide to the wines of Italy. It surveys the country's wine-producing regions; identifies key wine styles, producers, and vintages; and offers delicious regional recipes. Extensive reference materials-on Italy's 300 growing zones, 361 authorized grape varieties, and 200 of the top producers-provide essential information for restaurateurs and wine merchants, as well as for wine enthusiasts.

Beautifully illustrated as well as informative, Vino Italiano is the perfect invitation to the Italian wine experience.

David Lynch is regarded as one of the most influential filmmakers of our time, having been one of the few directors to appear on the cover of Time magazine. Lynch's popular and highly acclaimed cinematic ventures, such as Eraserhead, Twin Peaks, Blue Velvet, and Mulholland Drive, are credited for breaking down the barrier between art cinema and mainstream filmmaking from the early 1970s to the current day.
