Viking in the Vineyard by Peter Vinding-Diers
A great read of the roller coaster life of one of wine's most uncrushable optimistic and opinionated Mavericks For me, it's his tribulations and triumphs in Bordeaux that shine.' Oz Clarke
"The Académie du Vin Library is an important publication of wine literature… every work is a must for wine lovers" - Weinseller Journal
Peter Vinding-Diers was born in Denmark, son of the writer Ole Vinding and his wife, the painter AnneLise Grantzau-Christensen, and educated in Denmark, England and France where he studied agriculture and journalism. His adventurous life began with his stint as a journalist in Paris in the mid-sixties, then as a war correspondent in 1966 covering Nigeria, the Straits of Malaya, the Hong Kong riots, Vietnam – where he parachuted with the 101st airborne division – and Aden. His career in wine has covered many key innovations and business successes around the world. He shows no signs of stopping as his Sicilian Montecarrubo wines, made on the shores of the Ionian Sea, attract increasing attention.
