The world-famous wineries of California draw millions of visitors each year (Napa Valley is the second biggest attraction in California), welcoming visitors with a variety of surprises for the senses.
From Opus One to Close Pegase, Stag's Leap to the Rhône Rangers, trademark Zinfandels to world-class Chardonnays, California producers consistently create some of the world's most renowned wines. As The Wine Advocate's Robert M. Parker Jr. states, California is on a roll. California Wine Country opens with the history of winemaking in the state and explains how and why Californian wines have become famous around the world.
Randy Leffingwell then guides readers through the winemaking cycle and takes them on a personal tour of the state's most breathtaking and popular wine making regions, including Napa, Sonoma, Mendocino, San Francisco Bay, the Central Valley, Gold Country, Monterey Peninsula, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, and more. He also provides details about the most beautiful and interesting times to visit vineyards and wineries.
