Cynic's Guide Wine książka papierowa

The wine book that tells it like it is, no pretentious language
The science behind how wine works and why it tastes like it does
Information is packaged in bite-sized chunks, with helpful text boxes, to make it easy to follow, understand and absorb
The wine book all wine novices need, not condescending and aimed at a younger audience than most wine books

Much of what is written about wine, whether in wine books, on bottle labels or in the Sunday supplements uses language that gives wine an air of mystery. While compelling and enticing for the consumer this can also lead to confusion regarding the science of wine as well as fear on the part of the inexperienced wine drinker of ‘getting wine wrong’.

In The Cynic’s Guide to Wine, Sunny Hodge strips wine back to its basic science and unravels the facts behind wine flavours, showing readers a clear path through the verbiage. The text takes in elements of horticulture, soil science, botany and sensory science as well as oenology and is provided in bite-sized chunks aimed at the curious non-scientist. This is a straightforward and eye-opening book for anybody who has ever wanted to question the stories told around wine but was afraid to ask.

The wine book all novice wine drinkers need: strips away the pretension and explains what really matters when it comes to producing the flavours in your glass of wine.
Questions many of the things we take for granted when it comes to wine, from terroir to the science of wine making.
Author is the award-winning owner of two London wine bars who has earned a reputation as a disruptor in the wine trade.
