Book Review:

"In a profession such as winemaker there are a multitude of technical terms," said Peter Ltuthi, a retired Napa Valley winemaker who has taken Adriance's classes. "Finding the proper translation is not easy, even with today's access to the Internet. Adriance's Spanish classes, books and dictionary specifically developed for the wine industry provide an invaluable resource for anybody involved in viticulture or enology where Spanish is used." www.napavalleyregister.com/article_b9c74102-5983-11df-a594-001cc4c002e0.html http://freshvino.com/2010/05/introducing-an-englishspanish-vineyard-dictionary/
