John Salvi MW publishes The Count of Wine
John Salvi MW has recently published a new book, which he is hoping fellow members will find “an amusing and hedonistic read”. The Count of Wine traces John’s life history and is linked to the changes that have taken place over 60 years in the world of wine. Many of these years John spent in Bordeaux, where he was closely linked to Chateau Palmer and the companies that own it. The book is followed by anecdotes and stories about wine, food and personalities that weave the rich tapestry of wine. The book is described as, ‘A lively irreverent, amusing and highly readable tale by a gourmand and gourmet imbued with a lifetime passion for wine and food.’
