Despite Asia and China being the new grail for Australian winemakers, the Asian palate has been a tough market to understand, let alone crack. Finally, here is the book that will help winemakers, sommeliers and restauranteurs serving the Asian market. The book is lavish & informative, but Lee’s real achievement is in broadening the language of wine. By using descriptors more familiar with an Asian palate, Lee arms enthusiasts with a vocab to describe and understand the wines the enjoy. The implications for the wine industry will be significant.
Jeannie Cho Lee is the first Asian Master of Wine. She is a regular contributor to various Wine magazines & is a wine consultant to airlines and many Asian restaurants and wine distributors.
