The Wines of Umbria The book is a comprehensive guide to Umbrian wines, and introduces eighty-eight winegrowers and their product. The three thousand year-old art of cultivating vines and making quality wines are described in detail, and there is a brief profile of all wine producers. Everything one needs to know about the wines of Umbria is covered, and placed into a historical and cultural context. The author spent four months visiting the wineries of Umbria during 2011. The guide includes only the places that he has seen. All the technical details are taken from the producers' handouts. As far the quality of the wines goes, the author has no preferences; his aim was simply to pass on the information he was provided with.
