Synopsis
This richly illustrated book introduces readers to "the golden one," as Rebula has been lovingly described. Rebula grapes, an ancient varietal once prized by princes and popes, are indigenous to the region that now straddles the border between Italy and Slovenia. On the Italian side the area is called Collio, in Slovenia Goriska Brda. It has been rated by experts as among the top five wine terroirs on the planet, shoulder to shoulder with Bordeaux and Tuscany. Wine experts agree, calling Rebula "a dream wine of a new age." Rebula was rated the World's Best Wine in 2010 by sommelier Luca Gardini, and a Rebula has received an astounding 100 points on Wine Spectator 's 100-point scale. Beautifully designed with full-color photographs, the book recounts the fascinating story of Rebula and the history of wine in what was once Yugoslavia and is now Slovenia. The protagonist is a remarkable vintner, Zvonimir Simcic, one of the founders of what was Yugoslavia's most important winery before the country fragmented. Almost single-handedly responsible for the preservation of Rebula, he resurrected the forgotten varietal and transformed his home region, spectacular Goriska Brda, from a poverty-stricken area into one of the globe's great wine destinations. Pulitzer finalist Noah Charney provides a personal, humorous, deeply engaged travelogue through the little-known world of Slovenian wine that will delight adventurous travelers and wine lovers everywhere., Gold Wine tells the storied history of Rebula, a wine made from an ancient grape indigenous to the borderlands between Italy and Slovenia., This richly illustrated book introduces readers to "the golden one," as Rebula has been lovingly described.

Reviews
"Rebula is a secret treasure of the Central European wine scene: a taste of Habsburg glory we can still enjoy today. Noah Charney traces its history in Slovenia's Brda hills with particular emphasis on its human stories. Were it not for three recent generations, all would have been lost. Charney has talked to the key figures; he tells their important stories with zest and humour in this valuable, entertaining book." -- Andrew Jefford, writer at Decanter and World of Fine Wine "In this love letter to his adopted country and its greatest wine, Charney combines entertaining memoir with an art historian's eye to detail and history. Since Charney starts off as a wine novice, we get to learn along with his charming and unpretentious self about Slovenia's 'Golden One.'" -- Robert Camuto, author of South of Somewhere: Wine, Food and the Soul of Italy, In this love letter to his adopted country and its greatest wine, Charney combines entertaining memoir with an art historian's eye to detail and history.

- p***p (47)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoGreat seller! Item is what I ordered; good communication; shipped promptly; good value. NOTE TO SELLER: packaging was NOT appropriate for item; it was a flimsy, plastic envelope, with no stiff material to prevent creases. The book came with two deep creases that involved the *entire* item: one is a 1" triangle lower left side (bound edge); the other is a 7" triangle on upper right side (open edge).Beautiful Music for Two String Instruments, Bk 3: 2 Violins by Samuel Applebaum (#403989405345)
