Synopsis

For the last three decades, California wines have held their own against the best wines of Europe, and the wine country has developed a mystique of its own. Every year, millions of tourists and wine lovers come to explore California's wine regions from around the state and around the world. Now there's a combination travel guide/coffee table book that celebrates the region while recommending day trips. In "Backroads of the California Wine Country", writer Karen Misuraca and photographer Gary Crabbe lead readers on an informative and colorful tour of the wine-producing regions of California, including the legendary Napa and Sonoma Valleys as well as Salinas, the Santa Inez Valley, and many more. From the misty northern appellations of Mendocino County to the hot, dry flatlands of Paso Robles, in the wilds of the Santa Cruz Mountains and along the placid Russian River, each of the state's wine regions has a distinctive spirit and look, captured in all its glory by Crabbe's stunning photographs.
