Yamir Pelegrino Rodríguez

A New and Revealing Proposal

Yamir Pelegrino Rodriguez is the author of several books that strike many people’s attention. This time up, he’s giving us a new volume that, unlike the first one, broaches the aftertaste of great wines.

In Cono100do el Vino (Knowing Wines) –an encrypted and even Pythagorean title- Mr. Pelegrino takes a closer and puzzling look at the realm of wines in which he picks up the experiences and expertise of a man with a big crush on this particular beverage.

The book is nothing but a neat X-ray picture of a living critter called wine, a recount of both its birth and demise. The work also touches on one-and-only topics likened to a matter that has brought cultural knowledge to our lives. The book’s architecture is simple and comprehensive at the same time: a hundred FAQs with their own concise, accurate and in-depth answers. The remainder is made up of unpublished stories that move beyond the boundaries of boldness in an effort to bear out, before the reader’s eyes, the possibility of writing highly professional works in countries with no well-rooted traditions in a field like this one. However, it takes a man’s knowledge to understand the prophecy of an elixir that helps raise the quality of life based on a variety of heightened benefits to human health.

The book is also singled out by the “perfect match” with a quasi-untapped issue: the historic linkage between painting and the nearly mysterious magic concealed in every cup, in the silhouette of every bottle, in every detail that extols life itself.

This book has certainly followed in the successful footsteps of My Gourmet Passion, a volume that gave the author the Award to the Best Educational Wine Book in Latin America.

Once again, Cuba’s name flies high since the GOURMAND COOKBOOK & WINES WORLD AWARDS is the world’s number-one literary contest on gastronomy, some sort of a Cuisine Oscar. This time around, the event will be held in China’s Beijing, a place where the author could make one of is dreams come true: be the very first writer in this tough literary field to grab the world-class award for two years in a row.

The new offer invites patrons to look at wine as the one thing that takes man down the path of culture and love, giving him the necessary strength to carry on.
