"The wine does not lie"
Wine stimulates the imagination and predisposes to talkativeness, hence it is a source and repository of culture and knowledge.
This book is a witness to everything that has been said about wine, and compiles up to 7,000 words related to its cultivation, production, trade and consumption. Collects expressions in all the languages of Spain of Latin origin, including archaisms, cultisms and traditionalisms, with extensive explanations and quotes, monographic boxes and an extensive collection of illustrations and vignettes
commented on this book
"Reading slowly voice to voice surprises the richness of our language
that has been able to specify and point out, give a name to what refers to the vine and
to the wine. It is wonderful to come across so many beautiful words that our winegrowers and harvesters used and continue to use... Augusto Jurado's work is not only commendable for the significant number of voices it has managed to harvest, but also because it enriches many words with successful Quotes from writers and poets. A great work for professionals and lovers of viticulture"
