The wine | Guilbert

Collected and classified by PAUL GUILBERTOne day millennia ago, in a corner of her dwelling, a female of the species forgot and let some clusters of grapes ferment - she had just invented wine.Congratulations madam! Beverage of the gods and of men in many civilizations, it has since irrigated half of the world's literatures. Wine appears there as a social, convivial, comforting, inspiring drink, linked to love, dreams, celebrations, intoxication, the art of living, and health - a role often overlooked by new generations, deprived of information and with a taste perverted by "junk food." In this guide, the author, a retired English professor, offers the reader the results of encyclopedic, multicultural, rigorous, and yet very joyful research.ED: PARDES - 14 x 21 cm - 128 pages - paperback
