Perfect Pairings: A Master Sommelier's Practical Advice for Partnering Wine with Foodby: E Goldstein May 12, 2006 Best Selling > Food and Drink > Wine and Winemaking |

Contains quite a good introductory section discussing principles of food and wine matching. The majority of the book is taken up with chapters each discussing matching food with a particular grape (these being limited to: Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, Pinot Gris, Gewürztraminer, Viognier; Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Pinot Noir, Sangiovese, Syrah and Zinfandel). Within each chapter are a number of recipes each with a specific matching style of that grape.
Whilst the introductory section and introductory notes for each grape are indeed useful, a long list of recipes and wines for a relatively small number of grape varieties is no substitute for really learning in depth about why a food and wine matches. So this book provides ... Read More: >>More Details |

Vines, Grapes and Wines: The Wine Drinker's Guide to Grape Varietiesby: Jancis Robinson October 29, 1992 Best Selling > Food and Drink > Wine and Winemaking |

I greatly enjoyed this book, but found that the author dwelled a bit too much on facts about where and how much each grape variety is grown, and much of the data is from a 1979 census which doesn't seem too relevant now. Also, the information on Spain is very out of date as it is only in the last 15 years or so that Spain has got its wine act together. Apart from that, very recommended as no other book I have seen covers this subject so extensively and so well.

Waldin has done it again! A terrific read.
This is a writer that really knows his subject. But his knowledge is conveyed in such a way that he doesn't make the whole subject of wine intimidating. Nor does he patronize his readership. Monty Waldin is one of the few wine writers out there that both literally and metaphorically is willing to get his hands dirty; he goes to these vineyards, he works on the vines and the soil and he is not beholden to any paymaster. WARNING: It'll make you want to go to Tuscany. >>More Details |

I can't find a way to insert accents into this text so please ignore what might appear to be errors.
Almost the first translation I saw when flicking through this book was 'cream tea' from English to French. The book claims that this equates to 'the accompagne de scones avec confiture (so far, so good) et creme fraiche' BIG mistake. My French is good enough to know that 'creme fraiche' is soured cream and I have made and eaten enough cream teas in my many years on this planet to know that cream teas are served with fresh, whisked-until-almost-solid double cream or clotted cream, NOT with cream that is sour or tart in any way. The translation also omits the possibility of butter, which is usually offered as an option with ... Read More: >>More Details |
