Book Note: Matt Kramer, Making Sense of Italian Wine, Runnin

"Italian wine, like quantum physics, is such a vast subject that even the most assured, experienced tasters are left scratching their heads over some new madness. No nation so relentlessly, even profligately, issues so many wines. No winegrowers anywhere are so willing -- insistent even -- on throwing over the older order as Italians. Yet no sooner do they do so than a revisionist reaction sets in. It's as close to a permanent wine revolution as can be imagined.''

Highly recommended.
