AUSTRALIAN FLORA FAUNA VINICULTURE

First Edition. This is the story of a life and a career. From humble origins Max Schubert rose to become one of Australia’s and the world’s most admired winemakers. He created, in a solo effort, arguably Australia’s best wine: Grange Hermitage. In addition to his history, this book looks at the behind-the-scenes excitement of the wine industry: the laboratories, problems, solutions, innovations, grapes, cellars and sellers. The book pays tribute to the work of a man who over 30 years developed the art of fine winemaking. Includes an index.
