TELLY AWARD FINALIST ON DVD "The Winemakers: CALIFORNIA/ Liquid Gold" FOR WINE AFICIANADOS & NEWCOMERS RELIVE HISTORY/ ENJOY SCENIC BEAUTY/ LEARN FACTS Come along on a very special tour through the magnificent, California countryside in the Sierra Nevada Foothills, home to the lush, fertile vineyards of Amador and El Dorado, and to the men and women who are today's outstanding winemakers. "The Winemakers: CALIFORNIA/ Liquid Gold" is the first release in a new, exciting series, with a slight touch of romanticism, that offers viewers an intimate look at the people who share a passion for winemaking, and whose diligence and devotion have helped build a giant industry. Follow the grape growers, as their dreams are shattered during the dismal times of the wine producing failure in the Sierra Nevada Foothills, during the early 1900's, to its resurgence in the 1970's, that has since seen it rise to one of the finest wine areas in California. Against a backdrop that captures the beauty and majesty of the Sierra Nevada Foothills, the history of the wine producing industry unfolds, from its beginnings during the famous Gold Rush days, to its early 20th century descent, 1970's revival and present day spiral, because of the dedication and tenacity of those who persevered in their quest to grow the choicest grapes and adorn tables with their finest wines. In personal interviews, the winemakers exhibit an innate pride in their colorful history and in the 'liquid gold' that bears their names. Produced by Land's End Productions, this first installment of The Winemakers Series, "The Winemakers: CALIFORNIA/ Liquid Gold", explores the thriving wine regions of Amador and El Dorado, presenting a beautifully planned, comprehensive, behind-the-scenes journey that will enlighten and excite all wine lovers and welcome newcomers to enjoy the gracious world of wine, as well.
