Spectacular Wineries of the Napa Valley: A Captivating Tour of Established, Estate and Boutique Wineries (Spectacular Wineries series) [Hardcover]

LLC Panache Partners (Editor)

Book Description

Series: Spectacular Wineries series | Publication Date: October 1, 2007

From high-end, cult wineries—whose interiors have rarely been seen—to smaller, more accessible vineyards, this series surveys the legends and lore of various locales. Large-scale photographic essays are complemented by a narrative chronicling various aspects of the wineries including their architecture, art, cuisine, gardens, and history of the sites and what makes each of them unique. Terrific keepsakes for wine aficionados, these guides are also useful in trip planning and as a reference for those who want to become knowledgeable about wine making particular regions.

 

Clos Pegase, Consentino, Mondavi, and St. Supéry are just a few of the stops in this magnificent tour of some of Napa Valley’s most exclusive vineyards.

This review is from: Spectacular Wineries of the Napa Valley: A Captivating Tour of Established, Estate and Boutique Wineries (Spectacular Wineries series) (Hardcover)

Having visited many of these wineries I can say that this book truly captures the best of Napa Valley. The book is an excellent guide of the "must see" wineries of California. I sent a dozen copies to my friends.

This review is from: Spectacular Wineries of the Napa Valley: A Captivating Tour of Established, Estate and Boutique Wineries (Spectacular Wineries series) (Hardcover)

With such a compelling cover photo and a region so rich in architectural design for wineries and tasting rooms, I was disappointed that this book appeared to be a tour paid by the participating wineries rather than a tour of Spectacular wineries. While the featured wineries may indeed produce fine wines, the architectural images are less than might be imagined.
