Carte Blanche - A Quarter Century Of Wine Tasting Diaries And Cellar Notes: 1974-1999

In 'Carte Blanche', the author shares his detailed wine tasting notes and observations about "inside" players in the business, modifications in wine production methods, and the influence of wine "politics" on the wines themselves. Over the past 25 years, Albert Givton has had the opportunity to experience, first-hand, some of the greatest wines ever produced. As some of the older wines are now gone forever, his comments will prove invaluable for future generations of winemakers and wine lovers.
