Summary: 4 Stars
Few people today remember that Ralph Steadman grew to fame for his Gonzo art that complemented some rather famous Gonzo journalism. Today, his is arguably best known for his art that complements wine bottles, as well as a number of wine books published over several decades.
In Untrodden Grapes, his latest book, we get to read and see a number of small wineries through his artist's eyes. Focusing on small but premium producers (hence the title) from around the world, Ralph intersperses his personal editorial on the state of today's wine world along with descriptions and renderings of what he's seen.
A great read for wine lovers, and well worthwhile for anyone who enjoys the intersection of memorable art and great writing.
