Publisher Description: ?If California were an independent nation it would be the fourth leading wine-producing country in the world after Italy, France and Spain. And nowhere else will you find more visitor-friendly wineries. Sampling these and tasting their wines is a rewarding experience, but, faced with the bewildering variety of wineries on offer, it's hard to know where to start. This book guides the wine tourist--not only through the better-known regions of Napa and Sonoma, but also the Central Coast, Santa Barbara County and Southern California--and gives ample recommendations on where to stay and eat in and around each region. A Traveller's Wine Guide to California contains spectacular photography as well as easily-accessible information on such topics as The Winery Experience and The System of Classification and Grape Varieties. |
