Treading Grapes
This was a bit of stylistic mismatch for me. The book consists of chronicles of a series of walks Ms. George took with her husband through the Tuscan countryside visiting various wineries along the way.
Apart from small line drawings at the beginning of each chapter there are no illustrations or pictures, and Ms. George's style of prose tends towards the "just the facts" style. While this is fine for descriptions of wine making techniques, vineyard composition, etc., but less than engaging for me when it comes to discussing the Tuscan countryside and history of the region.
There is a lot of great information in the book, but I would use it more as a reference prior to a trip than as a source of daydreams while sitting next to the fire on a cold autumn evening.
