Fine Wine - Books

WINE TALK
1

A heads-up for anyone who received the flyer about two books from The World of Fine Wine -
“The Finest Wines of Tuscany and Central Italy” and “The Finest Wines of Champagne”.

These are advertised as being available from the University of California Press at $35 each.
You might like to know they’re available from Amazon at $23 each.

Enjoy !

Are they good books?

$46.14 for both if ordered together, they have listed…

I’ve found that nearly everything for sale somewhere is usually cheaper on Amazon.

Amazon.com, the Walmart of the internet.

And soon there will be wine for sale!

I don;t have any in hand, but the WFW folsk showed me a couple of samples on a recent visit through Seattle, and the books are GORGEOU*S.

They are indeed very beautiful, just like the magazine itself. The Central Italy book inexplicably leaves out Bea.

And the Champagne book leaves out the following (noted on a quick run-through–probably others as well):

Billecart-Salmon
Paul Bara
Camille-Saves
Godme
Ployez Jacquemart

At least the first 3 of these strike me as pretty significant, and top quality producers.
