The Oenological Tribulations of Professor Bucella and Other Wine Chronicles | Fabrizio Bucella

Mixing science and wine, Professor Fabrizio Bucella takes us on tangential paths that may seem silly, but really aren't. We will learn how to drink a low-quality wine by pressing our tongue against the palate and how to make someone swallow such a drink while keeping a smile on our face (the smile of the person, not yours). In the same vein, the author will teach us not to fear Gargantua, who supposedly ate pilgrims in his salad, as a giant of such size could not exist. A seemingly light-hearted essay, truly scholarly, to be read in one go or nibbled at according to one's desire.
