Ao relatar suas experiências pessoais com os processos de preparação da comida, Pollan mergulha numa história tão antiga quanto a da própria humanidade e propõe uma redescoberta de sabores e valores esquecidos.

From cork taint, to volatile acidity, to off-putting aromas and flavors, all wine connoisseurs have encountered unappealing qualities in a disappointing bottle. But are all faults truly bad? Are some even desirable? Jamie Goode brings his authoritative voice to the table once again to demystify the science behind what causes a good bottle to go bad.
