Tremendous book, phenomenal impact on how we think about grapes, agriculture, and philosophical look at man and his interactions with nature. Mind you, you also get to learn about grapes and winemaking. Recommended by a Louisiana Wine maker and grape grower while on vacation, I was enchanted throughout.
Learn a lot, and laugh some too; This book is wonderful...

I bought this wanting to learn about grape growing, but ended up learning so much more. Paul Roberts writes fluently about wine growing, but also focuses on the environment and philosophies of farming. It's really a great book to immerse yourself in the traditions of farming and grape growing, while at the same time laughing with Roberts about his experiences and his search for the perfect wine.
