Acerca de esta escucha
Do you love wine and want to know more about:
- How to discover what kinds of wine you like?
- What is the right approach for tasting wine?
- How to decipher the wine list and order wine in a restaurant?
- How to enjoy wine more with friends and family?
If you answered yes to any of these questions then this book is for you.
50 Things to Know About Wine by author David R. Comings offers a comprehensive, easy-to-listen-to, and approachable way to understand the world of wine.
Most books on wine give you lots of great information without really telling you what to do with it. Although there's nothing wrong with that, in my experience, a book about wine should include “how” and not just “what". Based on knowledge from the world's leading experts, this book provides information and how to use this information to enhance your discovery and enjoyment of wine.
In this audiobook, you'll discover the how’s and why's of wine and wine-tasting, good ways to share with friends, how to pair wines with food, and more. This book will help you engage in a discovery process that will enhance your knowledge and enjoyment of the world of wine.
By the time you finish listening to this book, you will know more about the world of wine and how to use that knowledge to enhance your enjoyment of life.
So, buy the audiobook today. You'll be glad you did.

In Proof, Adam Rogers reveals alcohol as a miracle of science, going deep into the pleasures of making and drinking booze—and the effects of the latter. The people who make and sell alcohol may talk about history and tradition, but alcohol production is really powered by physics, molecular biology, organic chemistry, and a bit of metallurgy—and our taste for those products is a melding of psychology and neurobiology.

The Brewer's Tale is a beer-filled journey into the past: the story of brewers gone by and one brave writer's quest to bring them - and their ancient, forgotten beers - back to life, one taste at a time. This is the story of the world according to beer, a toast to flavors born of necessity and place - in Belgian monasteries, rundown farmhouses, and the basement nanobrewery next door. So pull up a barstool and raise a glass to 5,000 years of fermented magic.

At just 21, the age when most people are starting to drink (well, legally at least), Victoria James became the country’s youngest sommelier at a Michelin-starred restaurant. Even as Victoria was selling bottles worth hundreds and thousands of dollars during the day, passing sommelier certification exams with flying colors, and receiving distinction from all kinds of press, there were still groping patrons, bosses who abused their role and status, and a trip to the hospital emergency room.

Wine and the wine business are at a critical crossroad today, transformed by three powerful forces. Veseth begins with the first force, globalization, which is shifting the center of the wine world as global wine markets provide enthusiasts with a rich but overwhelming array of choices.

The Home Distiller’s Workbook tackles the often misunderstood and misrepresented world of moonshine and distillation and reduces them to such simple concepts that even a first time "Shiner" can understand. The HDW will introduce you to the three basic steps in making your own artisan-crafted spirits: brewing, distilling, and ageing. We will be tackling these steps one by one in a way that will have you saying "I just can’t believe it was that easy." And the truth is that it’s even easier then that. If you can follow a recipe to make a cake then with the help of the HDW you could be making anything from Moonshine to Vodka.

For an entire year, Dellinger would eat or drink only products that had been created by microbes. Exploring the vast world of fermentation, Dellinger became the living embodiment of its cultural and nutritional power - he became the Fermented Man.
