Travelers' Tales Adventures in Wine: True Stories of Vineyards and Vintages Around the World
edited by Thom Elkjer, introduction by Anthony Dias Blue

From the Travelers' Tales series.

Although wine is the most ancient of beverages, the past decade has seen an explosion in wine consumption and an increase in the number of wineries around the world. Adventures in Wine is a first-rate collection of stories celebrating the world of wine, told by travelers who range between wine novices and experts. Humanity, community, and brotherhood comprise the marvelous virtues of the wine world - from its makers to its connoisseurs, judges, friends, and of course, drinkers. The stories in Adventures in Wine bring to life every category and every corner of the global wine experience, from France and California to Chile, Hungary and the Republic of Georgia. Both well-known and emerging writers share their tales, and each discovers a common theme: that wine provides a universal medium for bringing people together. Anyone who has even a nominal interest in wine and travel will love this accessible and delightful collection. As contributor Karen MacNeil writes, "What I didn't know then was that this deep-seated sense of hospitality, generosity, excitement and community is at the very core of the wine business everywhere in the world."

Notable authors include:

- Tony Aspler
- Bernard Fetzer
- Jim Harrison
