Peculiar wines are born when imagination is combined with the ingenuity of the human mind. Sometimes the results, aside from being uncanny, can be completely unique and diverse.
Peculiar wines may be the products of science, research, or even the application of technology that man created unnecessarily, due to incongruity or jealousy, or even as a result of arrogance that is attributed to his belief that he may impose his own terms on nature.
Peculiar wines are all those unusual ones, which crammed in their isolation, bear eloquent testimony to their eccentric uniqueness.
Maria Tzitzi with her great narrative quality wrote this book on wines whose history in and of itself, stir up, if nothing else, at least ones curiosity.
Lots of interesting and often unknown information, a great read.
