Book Description

January 1, 2010

A glorious look at British Columbia's wine regions and wine industry.

British Columbia Wine Country is now fully revised and updated to include the new faces in this scenic wine region. Through a blend of color photography and stories of the personalities behind the bottles, the book presents a rare opportunity to meet the remarkable people who have established British Columbia's best wineries and vineyards. Chapters focus on wine regions in the Okanagan Valley, the Lower Mainland, the Gulf Islands and Vancouver Island, inviting readers to enjoy picturesque landscapes, portraits of leading winemakers and a detailed description of the province's wine industry.

With its thorough coverage, lively style and splendid photography, British Columbia Wine Country is an indispensable reference and a visual treat.
