Correspondence from Another Wine World. A young novice gets a rude introduction to the world of imported-wine sales in 1963 under the tutelage of an experienced, and not too patien t, professional. This humorous historical tale is told primarily through the actual letters and reports exchanged between teacher and pupil. This saved correspondence offers a fascinating portrait of the teacher, while, at the same time, recalling a distant, more quaint era in the marketing of high-end imported wines in the not-so-receptive world of California at that time.
