Inspired by a deep passion for wine, an Italian heritage, and a desire for a land somewhat wilder than his home in southern France, Robert V. Camuto set out to explore SicilyOCOs emerging wine scene. What he discovered during more than a year of traveling the region, however, was far more than a fascinating wine frontier.a

Library Journal Review

Like the best of life's adventures, what began as Camuto's (Corkscrewed: Adventures in the New French Wine Country) exploration of Sicily's up-and-coming wine scene became something else entirely. Discussions of food, wine, culture, politics, tradition, history, and community interweave and unfold with an easy but never lackadaisical pace. Though the structure is that of a year-in-the-life immersive travelog, there is a lot of wine talk; but even as Camuto breaks down methodologies, the story never dries. Fans of Peter Mayle will feel right at home. (c) Copyright 2010. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.
