What if tasting wine was about thinking the world differently?
In A Light Philosophical Tasting: Great Wines, Great Texts, Brice de Beaudrap, philosopher and oenophile, invites us on a journey at the crossroads of senses and mind. Far from a technical treatise on oenology, this book offers a philosophical approach to tasting, accessible, brilliant, and profoundly human.
Through forty-two inspiring analogies, the author takes us from the glass to thought, from the gustatory experience to existential reflection.
Why is the choice of a wine glass not trivial?
What does our way of reading a label say about our relationship to knowledge and appearance?
How does a blind tasting become a revelation of our deep sensitivity?
Each chapter, like a small literary vintage, awakens our curiosity and questions our relationship to truth, perception, and the experience of reality. Far from dry theory, Brice de Beaudrap offers a living philosophy, rooted in everyday life, conviviality, and of course, in the culture of wine.
This book is a sensitive initiation to wisdom, an invitation to slow down, to taste, to observe... and to think. Ideal for the enlightened amateurs, the curious about meaning, and all those who believe that wine is more than a drink: a metaphor for existence.
