THE LIFE AND WINES OF HUGH JOHNSON
‘‘Any fool can make a subject complex and any fool can say it is simple. But how much do you have to understand to grasp the essentials? If I can risk another riddle I would say most people try either too hard at wine or not hard enough…”
Hugh Johnson
In this unique approach to understanding wine, Hugh Johnson,
the world’s best-loved wine author, weaves the story of his own
epic wine journey with an embracing view of everything he has
discovered along the way. Almost without realising it, the reader is
drawn into a fascinating world; with each page turned, knowledge
is gained and wine wisdom absorbed. Hugh takes us from the
teetering ledges of the Mosel and majestic châteaux of the Médoc
to the sylvan slopes of Windsor Great Park with a spring in his step
and a tasting glass at the ready.
No one writes so infectiously on every aspect of wine, whether
human or cultural, technical or historical. This book is peppered
with anecdotes and personal recollections, infused with the sheer
delight Hugh finds in his subject. It is a book with a story to tell and
a mastery of wine to impart.
