100 + 101

I was just passing by and I went into a branch of this major Chinese bookstore chain for a browse and emerged buying two Chinese books on wine, in my continuing attempt to read and hopefully learn to write about wine and related matters in Chinese. One was another offering collated by the Greater China Association of Wine Critics (own translation) just like the 2013 wine book I blogged about previously. This book gathers a total of 100 wines from 13 countries, introduced by various members of the Association. 

The other book is from Taiwan, written by a well known wine critic, who attempts to introduce some of the various characteristics of the various main stream wine grapes, usual methods of production, etc via the tasting and appreciation of 101 wines which she guides the reader to taste.All in all, a couple of interesting books.
