A peek inside the "Best in the World" book on Chinese Wineries



On May 19 of this year, at the international Cookbook Fair in Beijing, China, Janis’ most recent book, China the New Wine Frontier, received the “Best in the World” award in the “Special Award of the Jury for Wine” category.
For the cover, we searched long and hard to find a traditional Chinese painting a vineyard scene. The book itself is huge, weighting 2.2 kilos (nearly 5 pounds). It's all printed on heavy high-quality stock.

Besides the narrative-style body text, the rich photographs have detailed captions loaded with information about the vineyards and wine making in China. The copy is written with readers at all levels of wine enthusiasm in mind, from those just learning  to the very sophisticated aficionado.

Written in both Chinese and English, this book is undoubtedly the most complete look at Chinese Wineries to date.

The book is available only in China right now on Amazon.cn and other outlets. I'm working on getting it on Amazon usa and other North American outlets. I personally will have a number of copies available in a bit.
