I particularly enjoy devouring everything related to wine, be it books (essays, novels, popular science works, etc.), films or documentaries. This hobby is a continuous learning process, because in the world of wine nothing is permanent, since, although it may not seem so, everything evolves quickly and constantly. So, in case anyone is interested, I am going to leave a series of books and films that I think are essential. There are many more, but I think this list is a good starting point.<\/p>\n

As I said at the beginning of this entry, there are many more books and films. Some I haven’t found interesting, and others, for now, I don’t know about, so if anyone wants to make a recommendation, don’t hesitate to leave it on this blog, I’d appreciate it. The point is to keep enjoying and learning.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
