You don't need to own a vineyard to benefit from knowing what it takes to turn grapes into fine wines. Tour the areas throughout the world where the 36 greatest grape varieties are produced, and bring your own expertise to the wine experience, so you can analyze and identify such classics as Cabernet-Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Chasselas, Chenin, Cinsaut, Clairette, Colombard, Gamay, Gewurtztraminer, Muscat, Pinot Noir, Riesling, Sylvaner, Syrah, and Vermentino. As you learn the history of each variety, you come to see what makes each one a favorite of connoisseurs today. The whole story of how a lowly grape becomes a great wine starts with basic facts regarding growth cycles and diseases of healthy and unhealthy vines, leaves, and clusters. It continues through profiles of major vineyards, likely yields, alcoholic strengths, vintage years, color and taste--everything you need to be familiar with the process for producing a truly premium product.
