Product Description

Author Richard Paul Hinkle takes a close look at the history of Greenwood Ridge, dating from the days of wagon train leader Caleb Greenwood. He chronicles the story of Greenwood Ridge Vineyards with fascinating chapters on grape growing, winemaking, the California Wine Tasting Championships and the new Mendocino Ridge appellation, one of the most unique wine regions in Northern California.

Seventy-five color photographs, many by filmmaker/photographer Kate Kline May and 19 color illustrations, including two time-line foldouts.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must-read for wine lovers!, August 10, 2000
By A Customer
An interesting mix of family antedotes and winemaking information. Alligator Dreams is a must-read for all wine lovers. The Winemaking Timetable and Vineyard Timeline are outstanding. Kate May's photos combined with Richard Paul Hinkle's prose create a lasting impression of Anderson Valley, Mendocino Ridge and Greenwood Ridge Vineyards.
