The Story of Italy Through Its Wines

Melville House Publishingerschienen am28.05.2024
"A leading travel writer guides readers on a sumptuous journey through time and flavor to understand how and why wine transformed Italy. The world is enamored with Italy: its culture, art, food, and fashion, its beautiful landscapes, and famous cities--and, of course, its wine. From the ancient Greeks to the Medici, and from fascism to feminism, Italy has always been entwined with wine. Through the millennia, it has been a celebratory libation at great events, given solace in times of despair, and fortified warriors before battle. Whether Possessioni Rosso, still made by descendants of Dante; Barolo first king; or Terre Rosse di Giabbascio, pressed from grapes grown on ex-Mafia land, the peninsula's wines provide an intoxicating insight into the ideas, events, and personalities that shaped Italian history. If history can sometimes be throat-achingly dry, writer and wine expert Marc Millon serves up a delightfully fresh take on Italy's past, present, and future, best enjoyed with a glass in hand."--mehr
