The Art and Science of Wine by Hugh Johnson
Written by two of the world's most eloquent authorities on wine, this seminal book is required reading for anyone wanting to find out more about why wine tastes the way it does.
Systematically covers all vineyard practices, is well and pertinently illustrated, and not the least bit stuffy or pretentiousA very useful book." Malcolm Gluck, The Guardian
James Halliday is a respected wine critic and vigneron with a career in the wine trade that spans over 30 years. Perhaps most widely known outside his homeland for his witty and informative writing about wine, he was one of the founders of Brokenwood Winery in New South Wales, and established Coldstream Hills in Victoria, with his wife, Suzanne. Author of over 45 books, Halliday has written thousands of articles for a number of different newspapers and magazines. He is constantly in demand as a wine judge across the world. Hugh Johnson is acclaimed as the world's favourite wine writer. His rare talent for making the most complex subjects readable, with wit and humour, has led to a remarkable sequence of books. His first book and internationally best-selling Wine was published in 1966, and subsequent titles, including The World Atlas of Wine and Wine Companion (both now in their fifth editions), Story of Wine, and How to Enjoy Your Wine, have established him as one of the subject's foremost writers.
