Written by the author of the popular, award-winning website DrVino.com, Wine Politics exposes a little-known but extremely influential aspect of the wine business-the politics behind it. Tyler Colman systematically explains how politics affects what we can buy, how much it costs, how it tastes, what appears on labels, and more. He offers an insightful comparative view of wine-making in Napa and Bordeaux, tracing the different paths American and French wines take as they travel from vineyard to dining room table. Colman also explores globalization in the wine business and illuminates the role of behind-the-scenes players such as governments, distributors, and prominent critics who wield enormous clout. Throughout, Wine Politics reveals just how deeply politics matters- right down to the taste of the wine in your glass tonight. 606 $aWine$xPolitical aspects 606 $aWine industry 610 $aamerican wines. 610 $abehind the scenes. 610 $abig business. 610 $abordeaux. 610 $aburgundy. 610 $abusiness and industry. 610 $abusiness politics. 610 $acalifornia. 610 $acost of wine. 610 $aeurope. 610 $afood politics. 610 $afrance. 610 $afrench wines. 610 $aglobalization. 610 $agovernment influence. 610 $ahistory of wine. 610 $ainside perspective. 610 $anapa. 610 $anonfiction. 610 $aoregon. 610 $avineyards. 610 $awine business. 610 $awine critics. 610 $awine culture. 610 $awine distributors. 610 $awine historians. 610 $awine industry. 610 $awine labels. 610 $awine laws. 610 $awine lovers. 610 $awine making. 610 $awine taste. 610 $awine tasting. 610 $awine. 615 0$aWine$xPolitical aspects. 615 0$aWine industry. 676 $a338.4/76632 700 $aColman$b Tyler$01630325 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910821260803321 996 $aWine politics$93968559 997 $aUNINA
