Description
Summary:An examination of how women have overcome discrimination and other obstacles to achieve success and influence in all aspects of the international wine industry, incorporating personal stories and perspectives from dozens of well-known writers and winemakers
"This book, with its personal approach and global scope, is the first to explore women's increasingly influential role in the wine industry, traditionally a male-dominated domain. Women of Wine draws on interviews with dozens of leading women winemakers, estate owners, professors, sommeliers, and wine writers in the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Italy, Australia, New Zealand, and elsewhere to create a mosaic of the women currently shaping the wine world and to offer a revealing insiders' look at the wine industry."--Jacket
