Back in 1972, Steven founded the Académie du Vin – a series of classes that blended factual information with practical tasting experience, and which were structured so that students could build their knowledge in a gradual, orderly way without becoming ‘swamped’. In the 1980s his \u003ci\u003eAcadémie du Vin Wine Course\u003c\/i\u003e became a best-selling book. Now, the Académie du Vin Library is delighted to honor Steven’s legacy by publishing an all-new commemorative edition, handsomely bound in a linen slipcase, and fully revised and updated to reflect the wine world of today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTrue to the spirit of the original, Steven Spurrier’s \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eAcadémie du Vin Wine Course\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e takes the reader logically through every aspect of wine appreciation: how to taste wine like the professionals; why the ways grapes are grown and wines are made have such a profound impact on the final taste; the characteristics of the most popular grape varieties and the world’s wine-growing regions; and last, but certainly not least, how to store and collect wine so that you can appreciate it in years to come.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhether you’re a newcomer to fine wine or already an aficionado, there is no more enjoyable, concise way to take your learning to the next level.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"maple-banner\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"maple-banner\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eThe author\u003c\/span\u003e:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSteven Spurrier\u003c\/strong\u003e was a legendary figure in the international world of wine, known as an educator, a winemaker, a consultant, a mentor, an innovator and much more. He was perhaps best known for having created the tasting between top Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon wines from California and France in May 1976, subsequently referred to as The Judgement of Paris. A recreation of this event was held 30 years to the day on May 24th 2006, simultaneously in London and Napa. He ran a wine shop in Paris in the 1970s and created the Académie du Vin to teach people more about wine. He wrote 8 books on wine and was awarded numerous prizes for his wine, his work and his books. In 2017 he was made Decanter Man of the Year and also Honorary President of the Wine and Spirit Education Trust.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"OvtS8d\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"ow13\" class=\"NQSJo\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCe produit n'est pas disponible\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e?
