What is a “ Rhône style ” wine? The Rhône region stretches over 250 km and produces distinctly different winemaking styles from north to south.

In Wines of the Rhône , author Matt Walls provides a detailed, interesting, and insightful analysis of the region and its wine, based on personal travels and extensive research. Walls is a freelance writer and contributing editor for Decanter , specializing in the Rhône region, where he is based. The book is part of the Infinite Ideas Classic Wine Library, currently comprising 22 books on wine-growing regions.

期刊介绍:
The Journal of Wine Economics (JWE), launched in 2006, provides a focused outlet for high-quality, peer-reviewed research on economic topics related to wine. Although wine economics papers have been, and will continue to be, published in leading general and agricultural economics journals, the number of high-quality papers has grown to such an extent that a specialized journal can provide a useful platform for the exchange of ideas and results.
The JWE is open to any area related to the economic aspects of wine, viticulture, and oenology. It covers a wide array of topics, including, but not limited to: production, winery activities, marketing, consumption, as well as macroeconomic and legal topics. The JWE has been published twice a year and contains main papers, short papers, notes and comments, reviews of books, films and wine events, as well as conference announcements. From 2013 on, the JWE has been published three times per year.
The Journal of Wine Economics is fully owned by the American Association of Wine Economists (AAWE) and, since 2012, has been published by Cambridge University Press.
