A genealogical investigation into the connections between every major variety of wine, this family tree of grapes decants and demystifies the ancestry of Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Riesling and many, many more. Whether you’re an inveterate viticulturalist or an armchair oenophile, this color-coded chart will help fill in the blancs, pinpointing countries of origin and tracing the long and winding roads between hundreds of varieties of vino. Aged to perfection over 18 months of painstaking research and charting, you’ll never find a more complete genealogy of wine whether you search high or merlot.
