Description
Bianca Bosker's journey into the world of elite sommeliers reveals a fascinating realm where flavour and obsession converge. With boundless curiosity and a healthy dose of scepticism, she delves into the underground world of wine enthusiasts, exclusive restaurants, and cutting-edge science.
As she explores the world of wine, Bosker uncovers the complexities of taste and the brain's response to flavour. Her story is a humorous and counterintuitive exploration of the big deal about wine, shedding light on the science behind our sensory experiences.
Part detective, part enthusiast, Bosker's quest to understand the world of wine is both entertaining and enlightening. This book is a compelling exploration of the intersection of flavour, science, and human experience.
