Why read it?
1 author picked The Battle for Wine and Love as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Aliceās book is a manifesto against homogenization, wine consultants, and 100-point scoring systems.
She travels to the Loire and Champagne in France, to Piedmont in Italy, and to Spain. She reveals what goes into industrial wines, the mechanical treatments like reverse osmosis, and the additives like yeasts and enzymes, tannins, sawdust, and oak chips.
This book is an excellent compendium of anecdotes, interesting people in the wine world, and why natural wine is good. Youāll learn about the world of wine, but especially about the world of wine through the lens of Alice Feiringās passion, natural wine.
From Caro's list on books about wine from a recovering wine geek.
