The book explores the many myths of the grape, in texts and sensuous and subversive works by the artist, always true to his maxim: "A real connoisseur does not drink wine but tastes of its secrets". Hot on the heels (or lobster claws) of the best-selling Salvador Dali phenomenon, Les diners de Gala, Taschen presents the artist's equally surreal and sensual viticulture follow-up: The Wines of Gala.

The above-described situation makes preservation and popularization of Bulgarian History extraordinarily important. If it ... |
