Albert Givton has produced a wonderful work of wine literature helpful to anyone interested in a behind the scenes look at wine makers and their products. Definitely a good read and a useful tool when trying to find just the right wine for a special occasion or simply a regular evening at home.
Editorial Review:
In 'Carte Blanche', the author shares his detailed wine tasting notes and observations about "inside" players in the business, modifications in wine production methods, and the influence of wine "politics" on the wines themselves. Over the past 25 years, Albert Givton has had the opportunity to experience, first-hand, some of the greatest wines ever produced. As some of the older wines are now gone forever, his comments will prove invaluable for future generations of winemakers and wine lovers.
