A guide to eating and drinking your way through Georgia, a country that is considered the cradle of world viticulture and it’s now attracting a lot of attention in the wine business. It will make you thirsty, hungry, and willing to depart for Georgia. This is a great wine book for the adventurous wine lover. “Capalbo has done the great service of bringing the country’s treasures within reach of any visitor through the use of maps, listings of hundreds of places of interest, and suggested itineraries.” Matt SutherlandThis is a personal book. It is more a fun memoir than a novel. An immersion in the Provence, getting to know the people, the traditions, the places and the wines: a real adventure of life. “ Like a wry cross between Bill Bryson and Dave Bidini, Paul Shore's funny, self-deprecating and wholesome recounting of a year spent in Provence is one part travelogue, one part self-help guide, one part memoir. Uncorked is just like a good French wine: light, delicious, and full of flavor.” Grant Lawrence A book with an extremely interesting perspective on the wine world that uncovers the complex web of politics behind a bottle of wine. “It is the kind of book a wine economist would want to read and gift as a gift to friends.” Journal Of Wine Economics Wine Books That Are Rare Or Currently Out Of Print
