Book Description

August 1, 2001
Wineries of Michigan is a detailed guide, a trip between home and even the closest Michigan winery becomes an adventure of discovery. Want to visit several wineries in a single day? Detailed maps and explicit driving directions from one winery to the next will effortlessly guide you. However, the real pleasure of Wineries of Michigan is learning the inside story of each of the 21 wineries based on personal visits by Tadevich, not from literature provided by the wineries. Tadevich shares fascinating and quirky details about each establishment, highlighting special aspects about each place and introducing readers to winemakers. Tadevich also suggests which wines to try from each vintner and what your palate should be experiencing when you try each delectable wine.

Community pages are at the end of each tour highlighting restaurants, bed and breakfasts, hotels and various activities in each winery's local area complete with the addresses, phone numbers and sometimes even web sites. Color maps and photographs make the book all the more appealing and easy to use.

Wineries of Michigan is Tadevich's second book in a planned series of state-focused winery guidebooks. Soon to come to bookstores are A Travel Companion to Lake Erie Wineries and A Travel Companion to Oregon Wineries.

This review is from: Wineries of Michigan: A Guide to the Wineries & Vineyards of Michigan (Paperback)
Those who might consider purchase of this book as anything other than a historical document -- for example, to help guide them on a trip through Michigan wine country -- should think again. A copy of the annual free Michigan Wine Country guide, published by the state's Wine and Grape Council, contains far more useful current information for such purposes. Even though it's less than a decade old, it's horribly dated; Michigan now has three times the number of wineries Tadevich details, many of them located in parts of the state not even mentioned here. Despite its brevity (92 pages), much of the book is nonetheless generic "filler" and reference material covered far better elsewhere that all but the most novice of wine tourists will likely ignore: lists of grape varietals, how wine is made, and the like.
