À propos de cet audio

 INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER AND A NEW YORK TIMES CRITICS' PICK

“Thrilling . . . [told] with gonzo élan . . . When the sommelier and blogger Madeline Puckette writes that this book is the Kitchen Confidential of the wine world, she’s not wrong, though Bill Buford’s Heat is probably a shade closer.” —Jennifer Senior, The New York Times

Professional journalist and amateur drinker Bianca Bosker didn’t know much about wine—until she discovered an alternate universe where taste reigns supreme, a world of elite sommeliers who dedicate their lives to the pursuit of flavor. Astounded by their fervor and seemingly superhuman sensory powers, she set out to uncover what drove their obsession, and whether she, too, could become a “cork dork.”

With boundless curiosity, humor, and a healthy dose of skepticism, Bosker takes the reader inside underground tasting groups, exclusive New York City restaurants, California mass-market wine factories, and even a neuroscientist’s fMRI machine as she attempts to answer the most nagging question of all: what’s the big deal about wine? What she learns will change the way you drink wine—and, perhaps, the way you live—forever.

As someone who loves wine and works with it day in and day out, Cork Dork was a delightful blend of entertainment and education. Bianca Bosker takes readers on a wild, wine-soaked journey that inspired me to sharpen my own palate and pay even more attention to what's in my glass.
Her writing is witty, passionate, and full of quirky characters from the wine world—some of whom feel like people I’ve actually met in my own work. What I loved most is how she dives deep into the science, psychology, and sheer obsession behind wine tasting without ever making it feel stuffy or pretentious.
Bianca’s story of leaving her job to chase the mysteries of taste is both inspiring and refreshingly honest. Cork Dork made me laugh, think, and reach for a wine glass (purely for research, of course). Highly recommended for wine lovers, sensory nerds, or anyone curious about what it really takes to become a sommelier.

What a great read!
