In Postmodern Winemaking, Clark Smith shares the extensive knowledge he has accumulated in engaging, humorous, and erudite essays that convey a new vision of the winemaker's craft--one that credits the crucial roles played by both science and art in the winemaking process. Smith, a leading innovator in red wine production techniques, explains how traditional enological education has led many winemakers astray--enabling them to create competent, consistent wines while putting exceptional wines of structure and mystery beyond their grasp. Great wines, he claims, demand a personal and creative engagement with many elements of the process. His lively exploration of the facets of postmodern winemaking, together with profiles of some of its practitioners, is both entertaining and enlightening.

Abstract: The revolution in the ancient art of wine makingreally began with Pasteur, whose knowledge of chemistry andmicrobiology led to the application of scientific principlesto the fermentation process. The scientific approachcontinues to grow in importance, although certain aspects ofgrowing and fermenting grapes, not to mention tasting thewine, defy definition. In an effort to keep abreast of thisburgeoning technology, an updated reference work explainscommercial production techniques for all types of wine (red,white, sparkling, sherry, port, fruit, and brandy) andprocesses for avoiding bacterial and non-bacterial spoilage.Winery equipment and design, the molds and yeasts of grapesand wines, and the chemistry of fermentation are discussedin detail. Although the major wine producing areas of theworld are described, emphasis is on American varieties, botheastern and western.
