Barolo to Valpolicella by Nicolas Belfrage

Barolo to Valpolicella by Nicolas Belfrage

Along with its companion volume, the highly successful "Brunello to Zibibbo," this is a benchmark title on Italian wines. Nicolas Belfrage, a regular contributor to"Decanter" magazine, explores the mysteries of Northern Italian viniculture, focusing on dozens of wines ranging from the normale to the highest-quality single-vineyard masterpieces. Using many local and international grape varieties as signposts, he guides the reader through such magical areas as Valpolicella, South Tyrol, and Trentino as well as the hills of Bologna and the Po Valley plain, where Lambrusco wines really did once hang from trees. Enhancing his text with an extensive listing of producers, a helpful glossary of Italian terms, and even a guide to pronouncing Italian words, Belfrage has written one of the most complete and accessible guides to today's Italian wines yet to be published.
