VINOS DE ESPAÑA
The revolution in the vineyards and wineries
JEREMY WATSON
The new generation of Spanish wines which are today recognised as being among the best in the world is the result of the coming together of two fundamental factors: on the one hand, a solid winemaking tradition in Spain and on the other, technological improvements which have been introduced over the last thirty years in the vineyards and wine cellars. All this has given rise to an unprecedented revolution which Jeremy Watson was privileged to witness. |

El Vino Tinto |
|
Why is wine treated in such a sober manner? Joking apart, wine presupposes a pleasure, a delight, relaxing moments shared together and guaranteed enjoyment. This spirit of wine has inspired the author and the book's photographers. Because of this, in this book you will have to forego the idea of interminable pictures of vines, vineyards, casks and bottles. |

El Vino Blanco |
|
A Spanish proverb says that a fiesta without wine isn't worth a thing. Wine is there above all for us to savour and enjoy, and to relax us. We want to share this pleasure and spend some pleasant moments together. We are not too bothered about the vines or the wires that stake them, the steel tanks or their refrigeration coils. These pages offer a new way of looking at wine and a lot of unexpected information and opinions. |

El Vino, de la cepa a la copa |
J MIJARES, M.I. / SAEZ ILLOBRE
Contents: What is wine? the vine; the raw material; the varieties of grape; ageing and vintages; the final phase; bottling; how can one know a wine? Tasting; how to choose a wine, buying it, storing it at home, preparing and serving it. The authors aim in this book to explain what is wine in a pleasant, easy and understandable style, and to break down the apprehension caused by excessive respect for a product surrounded by so much ritual, and which prevents closer contact with such an important aspect of our culture which in its turn is a source of many unequalled pleasures. |
