In this stunning addition to the Assouline Ultimate Collection, Enrico Bernardo, the world's top sommelier, imagines the perfect cellar filled with the most exceptional wines of the 20th century:

The Impossible Collection of Wine

Weighing the virtues of rarity, terroir, flavour and historical mystique, Bernardo's is a list every connoisseur can only dream of. To turn grapes into bottle poetry, the winemaker must be something of an alchemist. Despite changes in technology and taste over the past 100 years, the craft has remained largely unchanged; a good wine remains the product of countless factors, not least the smile of providence. In these pages, Bernardo celebrates the most exquisite vintages around the world, from the 1928 Krug Champagne to the 1951 Penfolds Grange Bin 95 to the 1973 Stag's Leap Estate SLV, inviting readers on a journey through history to enjoy an impossible collection. This hand-bound oversized deluxe edition, with hand-tipped illustrations and presented in a wooden case, will be a must-have for the library of any true wine connoisseur.

The book has 144 pages and measures W 45 cm x L 50 cm x D 8 cm.
