Description
"The purpose of this encyclopedia is to give you the kind of basic information that will help you expand your wine knowledge and serve as a reference to the wineries. You will find a brief history, if there is one to tell; whether or not they estate bottle; where the vineyards are; the types of grapes grown; and the wines regularly produced. The diversity of winery owner and winemaker's backgrounds has always fascinated me and, for that reason, I have selected a broad range of personalities, either because of expertise or background, for inclusion in my book. Drink the wines of America . . . Enjoy the wines of America . . . "--Author's introduction.
