Skin Contact - Journey to the origins of natural wine

The world-renowned natural wine specialist Alice Feiring travels through the original lands of wine, Georgia, and delivers the inspiring story of this moving, human, cultural, and gastronomic adventure through her encounters: from the wise silkworm breeder to Stalin's last winemaker, including two Japanese natural wine hunters, and of course, all those Georgian winemakers, men and women with liquid gold in their hands. The grand feasts, the memorable toasts, and the local dishes (whose recipes are detailed at the end of each chapter) punctuate this odyssey of an American in love with wine in the world's oldest wine culture.
