Making Wine Sustainable - by Britt And Per Karlsson (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

An invaluable guide to best practice for modern wine industry professionals exploring sustainable approaches from a balanced perspective. Written by respected wine journalists with extensive industry knowledge.

From global wine brands to family-run biodynamic vineyards, the wine industry is increasingly focused on sustainability. This new priority raises vital questions about every aspect of the wine business, from the choice of grape variety to the best protection against disease, and from what to add in the wine cellar to modes of packaging and transportation.

In this timely and practical book, Britt and Per Karlsson explore how wine producers around the world can make their wine more sustainable, and they set out current debates for anyone seeking to make informed decisions about wine, whether grower, retailer or enthusiast. They also comprehensively cover natural, organic, biodynamic and conventional approaches, and address key challenges, such as regulation and climate change.

Making Wine Sustainable is an illuminating read for both industry professionals and wine enthusiasts who want to better understand this complex subject.
