Poetry is Growing in our Garden
Anders Frederik Steen, one of the central figures of natural winemaking, started out as a sommelier in Copenhagen – first at Noma, then opening Relæ and Manfreds – before heading to the South of France in 2013 to become a winemaker himself. These are his notes on winemaking and wine drinking, but they are also the doubts and insights during the learning process.
Poetry is Growing in our Garden shows what it means to understand (and misunderstand) wine, to taste and pair it, the balance between craftsmanship and abstract philosophy, and the technical details, in short, the thoughts of someone deep in their craft.
