Zusatztext

<span><span>In</span><span>Extreme Wine</span><span>, wine economist and best-selling author Mike Veseth circles the globe searching for the best, worst, cheapest, most expensive, and most over-priced wines. Mike seeks out the most outrageous wine people and places and probes the biggest wine booms and busts. Along the way he applauds celebrity wines, tries to find wine at the movies, and discovers wines that are so scarce that they are almost invisible. Why go to such extremes? Because, Mike argues, the world of wine is growing and changing, and if you want to find out whats really happening you cant be afraid to step over the edge. Written with verve and appreciation for all things wine,</span><span>Extreme Wine</span><span> will surprise and delight readers.<br></span></span>
