We are honored to offer today the most extraordinary wine-book of recent years, "One Thousand Vines," written by our dear friend and colleague, Pascaline Lepeltier! The book is a work of great depth, complexity, knowledge and beauty that will astound and delight you as it answers the basic questions of what wine is, where it came from and where it may be going. You will learn about the history, biology and ecology of the vine; the effects of climate, geology and terroir; the science of vinification; how we taste wine, and how we serve it. The text is beautifully accompanied by the magnificent illustrations, maps and charts of Loan Nguyen Thanh Lan.
 
Truth be told, I have only read 1/3 of the book - in French - with a dictionary on hand, and constantly needed. I can't wait to get the English edition! - David Lillie

Pascaline says "It took a village to translate Mille Vignes into One Thousand Vines… and I must say I think the translation may be better than the original! Thanks to the amazing team of translators, Malcolm Garrard, Jane Moseley, Jackie Strachan for your incredible work! Thanks to all the experts who read and helped to correct the different parts - Dr Jamie Goode, Guillaume Antalick, Sam Lyons, Kevin Pogue, Robert Pincus. And thanks to all of you for the support - I can’t wait for you to have this book in your hands!"
 
Pascaline Lepeltier is certainly one of the most talented and knowledgeable people in the world of wine - but she is more than that, as you will find in the pages of this book, and in her work at Chambers Restaurant. Her love for wine and winemakers, and their place in our lives, is boundless and filled with great enthusiasm, as is her love of presenting wine - either in this amazing book or in the glass she offers at your table.
