Un autentico «numero uno», uno wine critic riconosciuto nel mondo, scrive con stile sobrio e brillante un libro che unisce il piacere di leggere una grande storia piena di sorprese alla sicura affidabilità della migliore guida. los angeles guida a trent'anni di vini italiani. Solo l'inventore della Guida dei vini del Gambero Rosso poteva raccontare con il giusto umorismo, il giusto dramma, questa storia appassionante di pionieri, di vittorie e sconfitte, di artigianato degno della migliore tradizione italiana e di sfide industriali, di follia e vocazione. E solo Doctor Wine poteva coniugare questa storia con una sorta di superbonus che occupa metà libro: il word list, il Ghota, l. a. «summa enologica» del vino italiano. Etichetta according to etichetta, assaggio in step with assaggio, ciò che vale l. a. pena, e l. a. spesa, di mettersi davvero in cantina. in step with tutte le tasche. Piú los angeles privata classifica-torneo delle top venti eccellenze, del tutto fuoriclasse, dal Barolo Monfortino Riserva al Montevetrano. Destinata ovviamente a much discutere, in un libro che nell'insieme ci fa vedere il «mondo del vino», oggetto di tanto culto, sotto una luce del tutto diversa. Molto, molto piu umana.
