Wine Culture for Children

Posted on July 24, 2009 by Robert McIntosh

I am excited to say that a book published by the Dinastia Vivanco Foundation has won an award for Best Illustrated Wine Publication from the Gourmand Book Awards. The book is “El Estornino Saturnino En La Tierra del Vino” (or “Saturnino Starling in the Land of Wine”). You can read an article on Decanter.com about it.

I will write something up more fully today, but in the interim, here is a video I made (very quickly and with no planning) last night. If you want to win a copy, you can send me a message on twitter (@thirstforrioja) or leave me a comment on this blog post. Please tell me why I should send the book to you.

  • I have been looking for this book but with no luck as of yet. I too want to share it with my children. Maybe, they will find some interest.

  • Hallo Robert,

    I would like to have a copy of the book, to be able to present it on my blogs (french, german and english versions), where I had too often to write about the wine-hostile attitude of authorities, especially in France (you know our never ending Loi Evin story). It would be good to show them a counter example, especially as it was laureated in France and I haven't read any story on French wine blogs about it yet...

    winely regards from the South of France

    I can't find El Estornino Saturnino En La Tierra del Vino on the web and would LOVE to read it with my children. Can you tell me where to find it? Truly, we would be COMPLETELY DELIGHTED to take possession of this book by any means possible!

    Regards,

    Mary
