The Wines of My Life presents 75 exceptional wines chosen by world-renowned French sommelier Eric Beaumard. In this new illustrated memoir, Beaumard reflects on some of the most flavourful wines in the world: from Chateau Petrus created in the Bordeaux region to Chateaux Rayas from the Rhone valley, and from delicate whites to robust reds. Along the way, he reveals that a budding career as a cook's apprentice was cut short by a motorcycle accident that deprived him of the use of his right arm, and how, after months of recovery, he turned his interest in cooking into a life-long passion for wine. Full of vineyard secrets, fascinating portraits of winemakers, and serious meditations on life, The Wines of My Life is an unforgettable story of one man's journey--and the indelible wines he tasted along the way.
