{"product_id":"9781925043242","title":"Ten Apostles","description":"Aylward and Ashton say Australia has 10 great wineries—“beacons in a bleak landscape”. They wanted to write “Twelve Apostles”, but only ten came up to standard.\u003cbr\u003eOblivious to the “wine glut”, these ten battle to keep pace with demand. Each wine tells a story, creates memorable connections between producer and consumers. Worldwide, they’re ranked with the best. There are big names missing from this book, but the plain-speaking authors aren’t looking for industry friends. \u003cbr\u003eInnovative techniques last century gave Australia the headstart in mass-producing good wines. The world caught up, Australia’s lustre evaporated, and wineries face painful restructuring or extinction.\u003cbr\u003eNot the apostles. This book reveals how they ignored the celebrity winemakers; carried on family traditions and resisted the laboratory approach; listened to the TERROIR of their vineyards, seeing themselves as custodians of the grape, not manipulators.","brand":"HALSTEAD PRESS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51185647878418,"sku":"9781925043242","price":27.96,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0508\/3093\/4173\/files\/9781925043242.jpg?v=1759612174","url":"https:\/\/bargainbooks.com.au\/products\/9781925043242","provider":"Bargain Books Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
