Description:

Join world-renowned wine writer Hugh Johnson in this beautiful homage to Tuscany. Experience its history, landscapes, towns, villages, people, cuisine and above all, its wines and vineyards as he journeys through the sunbaked hillsides and moonlit valleys. This book evokes the Tuscan magic from dusk to dawn, traveling from town to town, through wheat fields and farmlands. Johnson not only explores the Tuscan geography and wineries, but shares the culture and sites—from a beautiful cathedral in Siena to a good place for a drink in Monte Amiata. Johnson's illuminating descriptions, wisdom and knowledge coupled with more than 100 breathtaking photographs capture the very essence of Tuscany and bring the author's passion for the region's distinctive grape varietals to life. This book is for everyone enthralled by Tuscany's sacred marriage of light and landscape, food and wine, beauty and history.
