About Books, July26, 2008

Benjamin Wallace's "The Billionaire's Vinegar: the Mystery of the World's Most Expensive Bottle of Wine" traces the history of some bottles of Bordeaux believed to have been purchased by Thomas Jefferson. The book is filled with interesting characters from wine collectors to wine sellers to wine crooks. You'll learn about elaborate wine tastings, wine auctions, and wine provenance. Wallace told me the book has been optioned by Hollywood.
