In Pasión por el vino, Joan C. Martin performs an in-depth analysis of the history, economics, enology, and typology of Bordeaux, champagnes, and Bourgogne, as well as explorations of lesser-known regions. He also pays special attention to the best Spanish regions, including Jerez, La Rioja, Priorat, Sierras de Málaga, Rías Baixas, and the cava Designation of Origin. The book offers an entertaining introduction to wine culture, but also an illuminating read for connoisseurs, with its incorporation of the newest historical research.

Pasión por el vino es una entretenida introducción a la cultura del vino, pero es también una lectura interesante para el conocedor, pues incorpora el resultado de nuevas investigaciones históricas y permite realizar un extenso recorrido por las más importantes zonas vitivinícolas de Europa, las de ambas orillas del Mediterráneo, América del Norte y del Sur, Sudáfrica y Oceanía. Arranca con el descubrimiento del zumo de la uva en una cueva del Próximo Oriente, y nos lleva hasta el futuro del vino, en los viñedos neozelandeses. Joan C. Martín realiza un análisis en profundidad de la historia, economía, enología, y tipología de los bordeaux, los champagnes y los bourgogne, que complementa con incursiones en zonas menos conocidas. También dedica un estudio pormenorizado a las mejores zonas españolas, desde Jerez, La Rioja y el Priorat hasta Sierras de Málaga o Rías Baixas y la DO cava, entre otras. Joan C. Martín oficia de guía erudito y nos lleva de la mano por todo el mundo para que conozcamos los secretos y los placeres de los grandes vinos. Este es un libro, ameno y a la vez profundo, que nos abrirá los ojos al complejo y rico mundo de los grandes caldos.
