Sinopsis

Authoritative and entertaining, the completely updated third edition of Richard Mayson's Port and the Douro offers unparalleled insight into the world of port and Douro wines. From the history of the wine trade in Portugal to the present day, this book is rich in information, offering readers the inside story of these magnificent wines, including a great deal of new material on the cultivation of the Douro's vineyards.

All the producers and shippers are included in a comprehensive directory which reflects the structural changes the trade has undergone in recent years, with withdrawal of the multinationals and the sale and amalgamation of a number of famous port firms.

Críticas

"A book in the image of Port Wine, delicious." - Blend, The Online Wine Magazine "Richard's tone remains down-to-earth despite his obvious authority and knowledge when it comes to this wine region. This is a book that offers much that is new and I'm delighted that I will be able to have it to hand when I next open a bottle." - Chris Kissak, thewinedoctor.com "The new edition of 2013 is far superior to all editions that have gone before and in my view is beyond any doubt 'The Bible of Port Wine'." - Books about Port "The only book on port and the Douro worth having." - jancisrobinson.com "A fantastic read from the get-go" - jancisrobinson.com "What to Read Before You Go: Port and the Douro by port wine expert Richard Mayson." - National Geographic, Best of the World Weekly on the Alto Douro Region "If you need to know anything at all about port ... this is the book to have at hand." - Spittoon.biz
