"Gerald Asher brought to Gourmet the magazine's most literate, scholarly, and civilized column. For a balanced view, a true feel for wine's values, he has no peer. And he is always a joy to read."--Hugh Johnson, author of A Life Uncorked and The World Atlas of Wine "Gerald Asher is amongst the most erudite men I know. With an exceptional palate, he appreciates wines of great elegance, subtlety, and finesse, and his writings capture the essence of many fine wines."--Christian Moueix, Etablissements Jean-Pierre Moueix "Wine can occasionally be silken textured, as can its prose, especially in Gerald Asher's hands. He is the Maestro, the Doyen, and my inspiration since the 1970s."--John Livingstone-Learmonth, author of The Wines of the Northern Rhône "Gerald Asher's eye for telling detail makes for addictively readable prose"--Terry Theise, author of Reading between the Wines "When it comes to style as well as substance, no one writing about wine in the English language comes close to Gerald Asher. These articles from Gourmet magazine are as fresh and informative as they were when initially published. A Vineyard in My Glass deserves a place on every wine lover's bookshelf."--Steve Heimoff, author of A Wine Journey Along the Russian River In a wine world that is obsessed with points and descriptors, Gerald Asher's writing is utterly refreshing. No matter his topic, he reminds us that the most interesting things about wine are the place it comes from and the people who make it.--Carole Meredith, Professor Emerita of Enology, UC Davis
