Description
Italy in a Wineglass: The Taste of History by Marc Millon The story of Italy is deeply entwined with that of wine. From ancient times to the present day, wine has played a significant role in Italian history and culture. This book explores how the peninsula's wines have been shaped by the ideas, events, and personalities that have defined Italy. From celebratory libations at great events to solace in times of despair, wine has been an integral part of Italian life. The author reveals how different regions and producers have contributed to the country's rich wine heritage, including Possessioni Rosso, Barolo 'Lazzarito', and Terre Rosse di Giabbascio. With a glass in hand, this book offers a fresh take on Italy's past, present, and future.
