“One thing I don't think that we have enough of in wine writing is the use of cause and effect. Whatever wine tastes like, whatever you're going to do with it, it is as it is for a reason.” ThinkingWritingReasonEnoughUseCausesOne ThingEffectsTasteWineCause And Effect Author:Gerald Asher
“Long ago, during my apprenticeship in the wine trade, I learned that wine is more than the sum of its parts, and more than an expression of its physical origin. The real significance of wine as the nexus of just about everything became clearer to me when I started writing about it. The more I read, the more I traveled, and the more questions I asked, the further I was pulled into the realms of history and economics, politics, literature, food, community, and all else that affects the way we live. Wine, I found, draws on everything and leads everywhere.” WayWritingLongRealFoundLiteratureCommunityExpressionDrawsEconomicsTradeWineRealmsSignificanceLong AgoTraveledApprenticeshipNexus Book:A Carafe of Red Source: A Carafe of Red
