Review Understanding Vineyard Soils / Oxford University Press, USA:Terroir connotes a sense of place that imparts a distinctive character to wine. A central component of iterroir is the soil and its immediate surroundings. Thus, an understanding of the basic properties of soils and how they function as a "living skin" on the earth's surface is of fundamental importance to grape growers and winemakers. Stripped of scientific jargon, Understanding Vineyard Soils explains to a wide audience how soils form and why they are so variable. Robert White describes essential chemical and physical processes involving nutrients, water, oxygen and carbon dioxide, moderated by the activities of soil organisms, and proposes remedies to alleviate adverse conditions such as soil acidity, compaction, poor drainage and salinity. The pros and cons of organic viticulture are discussed, as are the possible impacts of climate change. The author explains how sustainable wine production requires grape growers and winemakers to take care of the soil and minimize the impact of their activities on the environment. This book is a practical guide for viticulturists and for the lay reader who is seeking general information about soils, but who may also wish to pursue in more depth the influence of different soil types on vine performance and wine character. Understanding Vineyard Soils will discuss new developments, especially in precision viticulture and organic viticulture. The introduction will address new technologies (near and remote sensing, digital soil mapping) as well as traditional soil classification. [+]
Following a chapter on site selection are the three core chapters on vineyard and soil management - The Nutrition of Grapevines, Where the Vine Roots Live, and The Living Soil. The book is written from an international perspective - the important points discussed in Chapters 1 through 6 are illustrated with examples drawn from many wine regions around the world.

Review Imagery: Art for Wine / Wine Appreciation Guild:When multiple art forms are joined together, such as music, dance and theatre in opera, the end result is something far greater than the sum of the parts. A synergy between art forms yields something far more beautiful than the components. This book is about the convergence of two art forms, wine making and painting. Here is a collection of exceptional contemporary art, all created with one specific goal in mind: to grace a special bottle of wine, whose contents are also a unique work of art. The 135 works of art in this collection were all commissioned to be part of a wine label. A very old custom in France, but relatively new to the "New World". This is a one-of-a-kind art collection, as each unique and original work was created by an artist who was inspired by the art inside the bottle and was motivated by payment in wine, rather than money. A most suitable tribute to both artists, the winemaker and the painter. Thus this book is called "Art For Wine".
