Henry H. Work

The Shape of Wine (eBook, ePUB)

Its Packaging Evolution

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book delves into the history, evolution, and present use of all containers, vessels, and stoppers; from animal skin sacks to barrels, from glass bottles to upstart packaging such as wine casts, and even aluminium cans. The book examines their similarities and differences, how they have been impacted by external events, and how, in turn, they have influenced vintners towards making the wine, and traders who transport it.
