Contagious excitement and passion

Oz Clarke always writes from a place of excitement and passion without pretense. It is a great way to learn the history of wine without needing a deep knowledge of the European monarchy and wars. He makes learning about wine truly fun, and the fact he narrates it makes it truly all the better. You can feel his joy on the subject matter and it is contagious.

Love the excitement of the narrator.

I loved this book. I suggest listening on a slightly faster speed because he reads slowly with inflection. There were also several reading errors they did not edit out.
