An interesting reading experience

Hey, guys Merry CHRISTMAS !! 
Today we would like to change our blog subject from wine news or wine tasting to some interesting comic books about wine.

First of all, I have some questions for you: Have you ever felt a little bit hard to remember those names of the grape varieties, wine regions or been confused by the names of Chateaux? If the answer is “yes”, then I’ve got some idea of reading which will probably make it easier for you.

So here are my recommended reading list: A manga “The Drops of God” and a comic book named “The Chateaux of Bordeaux”.

By reading these two interesting (series of) books, you will not be boring or confused about those wine-related terms or names any more!

Now let me introduce a little bit of them...




The manga The Drops of God is about Kanzaki Shizuku, (son of Mr. Yutaka Kanzaki, who was a world-famous wine critic but has recently passed away) who is having an intense competition with Issei Tomine (the foster son of Kanzaki, also a renowned young wine critic). They should find out 13 wines (twelve Apostles and Drops of God that Kanzaki has described in his will) in order to win over the right of inheritance.

Why this book ? Because this book describe lots of details of the famous wine regions and chateaux like wine prices,grape varieties and also food matching!
OK!! Don’t hesitate to GET TO BUY ONE “The drops of god” you wanna get one more !!


Another on is Chateaux Bordeaux by Eric Corbeyran and Sébastien Portet (a.k.a. Espé). It is a very interesting comic book which introduce lots of the Chateaux of Bordeaux.

Wine, as the author described, they can not only talk and shout, but sometimes they can also whisper in your ear!I think that is one of the reasons why we are so addicted to the wine, because actually they are alive.If you are interested in the Bordeaux wine, why not chose this book for improving your wine knowledge? 

OK guys, TAKE ACTION QUICKLY & HAPPY READING!
