Book Synopsis Niagara's Wine Visionaries by : Linda Bramble
Download or read book Niagara's Wine Visionaries written by Linda Bramble and published by Lorimer. This book was released on 2009-09-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As recently as the 1970s, the term "fine Ontario wine" was an oxymoron, and a bottle of Ontario wine at a wine-tasting produced skeptically raised eyebrows. The Ontario wine industry in the Niagara region began to experiment as early as the 1920s with French varietals and hybrids -- only to have its efforts frustrated by Prohibition, government restrictions, the Depression,and a World War. And yet today the wines of Ontario are among some of the finest in the world. What did it take to change the practices of a century and transform an archaic industry into a modern one in just thirty years? Who were the leaders of this revolution? What were the challenges? And what might the future hold for this vibrant community? In Niagara's Vine Visionaries, Linda Bramble tells the dramatic story of people who carried out this transformation of the Niagara industry. Here are the pioneers, the visionaries, the scientists, the entrepreneurs, and the all-round "characters" who pushed, cajoled, and dragged Niagara into its proud place in the world of international wine-making.

Book Synopsis The Geography of Wine by : Percy H. Dougherty
Download or read book The Geography of Wine written by Percy H. Dougherty and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-01-03 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wine has been described as a window into places, cultures and times. Geographers have studied wine since the time of the early Greeks and Romans, when viticulturalists realized that the same grape grown in different geographic regions produced wine with differing olfactory and taste characteristics. This book, based on research presented to the Wine Specialty Group of the Association of American Geographers, shows just how far the relationship has come since the time of Bacchus and Dionysus. Geographers have technical input into the wine industry, with exciting new research tackling subjects such as the impact of climate change on grape production, to the use of remote sensing and Geographical Information Systems for improving the quality of crops. This book explores the interdisciplinary connections and science behind world viticulture. Chapters cover a wide range of topics from the way in which landforms and soil affect wine production, to the climatic aberration of the Niagara wine industry, to the social and structural challenges in reshaping the South African wine industry after the fall of apartheid. The fundamentals are detailed too, with a comparative analysis of Bordeaux and Burgundy, and chapters on the geography of wine and the meaning of the term ‘terroir’.

Book Synopsis Meaningful Pasts by : Russell Johnston
Download or read book Meaningful Pasts written by Russell Johnston and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2024-01-31 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Meaningful Pasts, Russell Johnston and Michael Ripmeester explore two strands of identity-making among residents of the Niagara region in Ontario, Canada. First, they describe the region’s official narratives, most of which celebrate the achievements of white settlers with a mix of storytelling, rituals, and monuments. Despite their presence in local lore and landmarks, these official narratives did not resonate with the nearly one thousand residents who participated in five surveys conducted over eleven years. Instead, participants drew on contemporary people, places, and events. Second, the authors explore the emergence of Niagara’s wine industry as a heritage narrative. The book shares how the survey participants embraced the industry as a local identifier and indicates how the industry’s efforts have rekindled the residents’ interest in agriculture as a significant element of regional heritage and local identities. Revealing how the profiles of local narratives and commemorations become entwined with social, cultural, economic, and political power, Meaningful Pasts illuminates the fact that local narratives retain their relevance only if residents find them meaningful in their day-to-day lives.
Book Synopsis The Routledge Handbook of Wine and Culture by : Steve Charters
Download or read book The Routledge Handbook of Wine and Culture written by Steve Charters and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-04-26 with total page 615 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The link between culture and wine reaches back into the earliest history of humanity. The Routledge Handbook of Wine and Culture brings together a newly comprehensive, interdisciplinary overview of contemporary research and thinking on how wine fits into the cultural frameworks of production, intermediation and consumption. Bringing together many leading researchers engaged in studying these phenomena, it explores the different ways in which wine is constructed as a social artefact and how its representation and use acquire symbolic meaning. Wine can be analysed in different ways by varying disciplines involved in exploring wine and culture (anthropology, economics and business, geography, history and sociology, and as text). The Handbook uses these as lenses to consider how producers, intermediaries and consumers use and create cultural significance. Specifically, the work addresses the following: how wine relates to place, belief systems and accompanying rituals; how it may be used as a marker of the identity and mechanisms of civilising processes (often in conjunction with food and the arts); how its framing intersects with science and nature; the ideologies and power relations which arise around all these activities; and the relation of this to wine markets and public institutions. This is essential reading for researchers and students in education for the wine industry and in the humanities and social sciences engaged in understanding patterns of human ingenuity and interaction, such as sociology, anthropology, economics, health, geography, business, tourism, cultural studies, food studies and history.
Book Synopsis The Story of Hillebrand Estates Winery by : Peter G. Mielzynski-Zychlinski
Download or read book The Story of Hillebrand Estates Winery written by Peter G. Mielzynski-Zychlinski and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From one of the founders of Hillebrand Estates, comes a fascinating account of the development and establishment of this award-winning Niagara winery. The story of how Hillebrand Estates Winery became one of the top producers of world-class wines in Canada is truly amazing. When it was founded in 1982, only four other estate wineries existed in the Niagara region; now there are over forty. Clearly, Hillebrand Estates is one of the pioneers in the art of winemaking in this country. From the beginning, Hillebrand's goal was to develop high-quality Ontario wines that would rival the European imports appearing on store shelves. Hillebrand's innovation and expertise has ensured that it is one of the leading producers of top quality wine in the Niagara region. The winery was the first to develop contracts for Niagara growers, guaranteeing ten years of crop purchases. Hillebrand was also the first Canadian winery to bring Icewine to market. They have won many prestigious national and international awards for their wines, and their wine-tasting tours and European-style wine market stores have been instrumental in developing a market for Canadian wines. A wonderful introduction to the art of winemaking in Canada, The Story of Hillebrand Estates Winery is recommended reading for all wine lovers.
Book Synopsis Migration, Tourism and Social Sustainability by : Jaeyeon Choe
Download or read book Migration, Tourism and Social Sustainability written by Jaeyeon Choe and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-03-21 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The distinctions between tourism and migration are increasingly blurred. Tourism often drives various forms of mobility, and an international workforce is essential to maintaining functioning tourism economies. This book explores intersections of tourism and migration, considering their relationships with and impacts on social sustainability. The chapters explore in a variety of contexts how the planning, development and governance of tourism affects the sustainability of communities, which consequently influences attitudes towards migrants and tourists. They also consider how migrant-local connections may evolve, creating opportunities for positive, symbiotic co-existence or intergroup tensions and exploitative relationships. The book paves the way for future work examining new forms and interactions between migration and tourism that contribute to social sustainability. This book will be of great value to students, academics, and researchers interested in tourism, geography, migration/diaspora studies and sociology. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of Tourism Geographies.
