Let's get started with the books. We all remember Miles and Jack from Sideways. They get back together in the sequel Vertical by Rex Pickett and travel to Oregon.to attend the International Pinot Noir festival. Join them on their adventure and of course there are many escapades that follow. Miles mom even joins them. The book will have you laughing but keep a box of tissues close by.
Hungry for Wine by Cathy Huyghe is about her own personal journey into wine. From tastings in Boston to traveling the world and meeting the people behind the wine. The stories about the people and families and their flight to pursue great winemaking and their passion.
A Perfect Score by Craig and Kathryn Hall is the personal journey of Craig and Kathryn Hall in establishing Hall Wines. From losing their first vintage to becoming one of Napa's premiere wineries. The triumphs and struggles along the way.
Champagne by DavidWhite is a great book for the Champagne lover or someone wanting to learn more about the bubbles. This book is comprehensive from the history of the region to the profiling of the producers. To go along with this book I would suggest a set of Riedel Veritas Champagne glasses. (I just purchased them for my husband for Christmas because he broke two of the four we had. Shh...don't tell him)
