Editorial Reviews:
Review:"His prose has a pleasing, gentle flow, with eddies of humor and yeastiness; Osborne displays a hungry mind....He takes the showboats down a peg, but he isn't a self-conscious iconoclast, just an odd fellow looking for a mouthful of happiness."
Kirkus, 01/01/2004
Review:"It becomes clear that Osborne not only knows a great deal about wine, but cares about it a great deal, too. And he has a wicked ear. Osborne's encounters are often priceless....THE ACCIDENTAL CONNOISSEUR is a vital book for those who care about wine....Osborne is a new voice in the wine world, smart, generous, perceptive, funny, sensible, free of cant and arrogance and self-interest."
Tony Hendra, New York Times Book Review, 03/28/2004

Book Description: FARRAR STRAUS AND GIROUX, 2004. Hardcover. Book Condition: New. Weaving together a cast of eccentrics and obsessives, industry magnates and small farmers, the author explores the way technological change, opinionated critics, consumer trends, wheelers and dealers, trade wars, and mass-market tastes have made the wine we drink today almost unrecognizable compared to the vintages drunk by our grandparents. All in 'a wine book like no other.' 262p. Bookseller Inventory # 1747638 Bookseller & Payment Information | More Books from this Seller | Ask Bookseller a Question |
