Opis

This pioneering book explains geology wholly in the context of wine, including how it works in vineyards and its possible effects on wine taste.

Recenzje

In contrast to previous books on wine and geology, Maltman actually aims to evaluate how geology might be relevant to wine. He is well qualified for the task, with experience growing his own vines and a university career in teaching and research in geology.
