Nuikki and the creative minds behind Drinking History are thrilled to present the first part of their prestigious Drinking History series.

"Nuikki's Drinking History is a monumental stone. An astonishing and brilliant work, beautifully designed and imaginative! My Vintage Wine-book has been described as “Magnum opus”, Nuikki's is a Jeroboam” –Michael Broadbent MW

“Drinking History is very complete, well done, precise and professional book. Photos are magnificent. An essential 'material' for serious wine lovers." – Frederic Engerer/ President of Château Latour

 “Drinking history is a monumental book on fine wines! Nuikki is a true past master in the art of encouraging wine aficionados to drink history. One of the greatest things with such an informative book is that you can consult it before, during and after drinking! Additionally, I wish to say that pictures are second to none." – Christian Pol-Roger

 “The way Nuikki talks about vintages is unique and interesting: a touch of history, a touch of geography and economy when necessary, anecdotes, and of course climatic information, as well as your tasting notes at the end. All these small touches, combined with surrealistic black and white photos that often evoke the mysterious atmosphere of certain old films, make an original book." –Jean-Philippe Delmas Director of Château Haut-Brion
