HUGH JOHNSON said *Marcelo is right: wine is not really about bottles and barrels and grape varieties. They are just the technical background. Wine is about life: a glorious adjunct to life well-lived, with all its interests, all its passions. In this highly original book, Marcelo explores a host of wine-connected topics, from music to sex to post- -modernism. His musings are stream-of-consciousness considered, researched and documented; a rare recipe, seasoned with wit and even a little wisdom. 'Music doesn't say everything' he quotes from José Miguel Wisnik, "but it somehow implies the whole'. Wine, too, in a way*.
