Combining witty words and provocative pictures Stuart Pigott explains why a single grape variety can make a soft, fruity wine on one side of the globe and a gutsy, ageworthy, wine on the other - showing how you too can taste the world in a glass of wine. Drawing on over 140 photographs, Planet Wine takes a simple, unique, visually evocative approach to describe how the major grape varieties taste - from Chardonnay to Merlot to Sangiovese - and gives the reasons behind why each makes different and distinctive styles of wine in different parts of the world.
