About this book

One Thousand Vines

Pascaline Lepeltier learned Greek at age 10 and later studied philosophy, but decided to change course and focus entirely on the wine world. In 2023, she was the favorite to win the title of Best Sommelier of the World, but narrowly missed out. Despite disappointment in France, she persevered and is now one of the most influential sommeliers in New York.

Her book One Thousand Vines explores the complex relationship between wine, terroir, and nature, and offers new insights into the future of wine.

It's often said that the more we learn about wine the less we know. But wine lovers who read this book will deeply, richly profit.
