"'Wine is, above all, about pleasure. Those who make it ponderous make it dull...If you keep an open mind and take each wine on its own terms, there is a world of magic to discover.' So wrote the renowned wine expert Kermit Lynch in the introduction to Adventures on the Wine Route, his ultimate tour of France, especially its wine cellars. The 'magic' of wine is Lynch’s subject as he takes the reader on a singular journey through the Loire, Bordeaux, the Languedoc, Provence, northern and southern Rhone, and Burgundy. In Adventures on the Wine Route, the wine lover will find wisdom without a trace of pretension and hype. As Victor Hazan wrote, 'In Kermit Lynch’s small, true, delightful book there is more understanding about what wine really is than in everything else I have read.'"--Amazon.com.
