Wie Wein entsteht, von der Traube bis zur Flasche. Großer Wein ist eine komplexe Mischung aus Natur, Kunst und Wissenschaft. Die Autoren James Halliday und Hugh Johnson analysieren die Kunst und Wissenschaft hinter dem Weinherstellungsprozess. Sie beginnen mit der grundlegenden Rolle des Terroirs, der komplexen Kombination von Eigenschaften, die einem Wein seine Persönlichkeit verleihen. Die neuesten Entwicklungen in der Rebenschnitt- und Bewässerungstechnik werden behandelt, ebenso wie das Aufkommen von Weinbergen in kühleren Regionen und der Anstieg von Bioweinen. Die Weinproduktion im Keller wird für neun spezifische Stile detailliert beschrieben, von leichten Weißweinen bis hin zu vollmundigen Rotweinen, sowie süßen, schaumigen und verstärkten Sorten. Die Autoren präsentieren die Entscheidungen, vor denen Winzer in jedem Schritt stehen. Die Wissenschaft der Reifung wird diskutiert, ebenso wie die hitzige Debatte der Branche über die Vorzüge von Naturkorken, Kunststoffkorken und Schraubverschlüssen. Das Buch behandelt auch: Ein Jahr im Weinberg, Quantität vs. Qualität, nationale Einstellungen und regionale Merkmale, Mechanisierung sowie die Chemie und Analyse von Wein. Die Kunst und Wissenschaft des Weins ist reich an Farbfotografien und Illustrationen. Der Text spiegelt die neuesten Technologien und Entdeckungen in der Weinherstellung wider und ist sowohl zugänglich als auch äußerst informativ.
