A comprehensive picture - if a snapshot,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Wines of Hungary (Classic Wine Library) (Paperback)
As Liddell himself says, the situation is changing and this is a snapshot, but an extremely informative one. This book is without parallel in english (and any other language?) and comprehensively surveys the vineyards of Hungary together with a lot of background on the grapes, the soil, the history, the traditions and the problems facing Hungary's wine makers.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Great Book, Difficult Language but AMAZING Appendices!,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Wines of Hungary (Classic Wine Library) (Paperback)
This is a stellar book on the most difficult of the major wine producing countries to study (up there with Italy and Greece). On key fact is that the Hungarian language is so difficult for English speakers to pronounce. Liddell is my hero for his pronunciation guide in the appendices as well as the other appendices showing production, exchange and conversion charts and more! Now when I read these texts I wish they all contained a pronunciation guide!
So a note to the publishers: please include a pronunciation chart in the next edition of Germany and Austria! |
