50 True Tales of Port Wine is a charming, timeless book that is written to appeal to novice port drinkers and seasoned enthusiasts alike, offering bite-sized stories that can be picked up and set down at your leisure.
The book packs author Henry Shotton’s decades of port-winemaking experience and deep affection for the category into a slim, elegant volume that will fit neatly in your pocket or sit comfortably on a side table next to your evening glass of port. Informative without being dry or dispassionate—light, but not empty—50 True Tales is made up of engaging, readily digestible tales that together tell the story of port wine: how it developed, how its fame grew, how it is produced from the soil in which it grows all the way to the glass into which you pour it, and how its unique rituals and traditions continue to make it special today.
A perfect gift to offer customers and clients at premium tastings or to stock for sale in a visitor centre gift shop, 50 True Tales of Port Wine is being produced by Helios House Press, a boutique publishing house known for meticulous dedication to making specialty books that are a pleasure to look at and to hold—down to the last detail. It is available for wholesale pre-order now.
