Synopsis The History of Wines in Hungary and Italy by : Edward Randolph Emerson
This vintage book contains a fascinating study of wine in Hungary and Italy, with information on its history and origins, influence, manufacture, exportation, and many other related aspects. An interesting and informative exploration of Hungarian and Italian wine culture, “The History of Wines in Hungary and Italy” would make for a worthy addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: “Hungarian and Italian Wines”, “Ancient Hungary”, “Tokay Wine”, “One Hundred Different Brands of Exported Wines”, “Attention to Cleanliness”, “Two Unreported Brands”, “Tokay Grapes”, “A Wide Variety in Quality and Taste”, “Hungarian Vino-Growing”, “A Billy-Goat Flavor”, etc. Many vintage books like this are becoming increasingly hard-to-come-by and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality addition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on winemaking.

Synopsis The Wines of Hungary by : Alex Liddell
This reference to the 22 wine regions of Hungary shows how this country, with its once-proud wine tradition, reinvented itself after 45 years of communism, during which time the entire structure of grape growing and wine production was changed out of recognition. The author details how Hungary's re-adjustment, which still continues, has progressed through privatization, foreign investment and the dedication of small producers struggling to achieve quality standards in the face of a chronic lack of capital. He covers over 300 wine producers, not only from the famous regions like Tokaj and Villany, where significant progress has been made, but also from the lesser-known and as yet underdeveloped regions that suggest the potential to make world-class wines. There are detailed profiles of the leading producers, with assessments of their wines, plus maps detailing the key wine areas.

Synopsis Tokaji Wine by : Miles Lambert-Gócs
The world's first botrytis wine, Hungary's Tokaji won an enviable reputation centuries ago, but never before have the development of its wine types and the story of its ups and downs in fame and prestige been presented so fully in English. Relying on an array of Hungarian source materials, author Miles Lambert-Gócs sets the information out in encyclopedia fashion, with easily digested, A-to-Z entries that discuss the people, places, vineyard-tracts, grape varieties, and wine-making associated with this wine. Besides being an outstanding reference work, Tokaji Wine is sprinkled with fascinating notes and bacchic humor that make it a delight to read.

Synopsis A History of Italian Wine by : Manuel Vaquero Piñeiro
This book analyzes the evolution of Italian viticulture and winemaking from the 1860s to the new Millennium. During this period the Italian wine sector experienced a profound modernization, renovating itself and adapting its products to international trends, progressively building the current excellent reputation of Italian wine in the world market. Using unpublished sources and a vast bibliography, authors highlight the main factors favoring this evolution: public institutional support to viticulture; the birth and the growth of Italian wine entrepreneurship; the improvement in quality of the winemaking processes; the increasing relevance of viticulture and winemaking in Italian agricultural production and export; and the emergence of wine as a cultural product.

Synopsis Inventing Wine: A New History of One of the World's Most Ancient Pleasures by : Paul Lukacs
"Meticulously researched history…look[s] at how wine and Western civilization grew up together." —Dave McIntyre, Washington Post Because science and technology have opened new avenues for vintners, our taste in wine has grown ever more diverse. Wine is now the subject of careful chemistry and global demand. Paul Lukacs recounts the journey of wine through history—how wine acquired its social cachet, how vintners discovered the twin importance of place and grape, and how a basic need evolved into a realm of choice.
