Rezensionen

"Contemporary Wine Studies: Dancing with Bacchus is not your usual wine book.It doesn't take you through regions and appellations, wine-making techniques and producers. Instead it investigates the role of wine in a social context and delves into the part humanity plays in all its facets, from production to labelling, from marketing and learning. Far from being a dry textbook, it whets the appetite for a deeper understanding of a subject and product people throughout the world have obsessed about for centuries."
- Laura Clay, Association of Wine Educators, Circle of Wine Writers, Accredited Bordeaux Tutor

"What a work! This book shows how essential it is to understand that wine is not just a drink but a way of life. It should definitively have a place in the library of anyone who appreciates wine. Congratulations to the authors!"- Jean-Pierre Renard, L'École des Vins, Bureau Interprofessionnel des Vins de Bourgogne
