Italy′s Native Wine Grape Terroirs

Ian D′agata

"Part walking Wikipedia, part philosopher, Ian D'Agata supplies a wealth of information on Italian wine--both fact and lore--and his latest book is a must-have and a compelling read for all lovers of Italy, Italian culture, and Italian wine. Ian's unique voice and unparalleled access to Italy's most famous, most infamous, and those not-yet-discovered winemakers and vignerons tells a fascinating story of Italy's history through the lens of agriculture and winemaking."--Laura DePasquale, Master Sommelier

"D'Agata's prose is as noteworthy as its scholarly content. Anyone interested in delving deeply into Italian wine needs a copy of this book"--Michael Apstein, James Beard Award-winning wine writer and Assistant Professor of Medicine, Harvard Medical School

"I get asked all the time, which wine writers do I most admire? Ian D'Agata is always at the top of my list. He is that rarest of creatures, a once-in-a-generation great wine writer, and a benchmark for writing beautifully, engagingly, and with compelling insight. Really, nobody today does it better."--Matt Kramer, author of True Taste: The Seven Essential Wine Words
