The Insiders' Guide to California's Wine Country

by Ted Brock Phil Barber, Ted Brock

With more than 300 wineries -- from primitive earthen cellars to tourist-friendly operations that push the envelope of viniculture -- the valleys of Napa, Sonoma, Mendocino and Lake counties have become major vacation destinations and home to some of the most exclusive addresses in the country. But be advised, there is much more to the Wine Country than the mighty grape and the elixirs it produces. The Insiders' Guide to California's Wine Country also explores historic towns that evoke Spanish influence, quiet background roads, redwoods, ocean vistas, kidstuff, one-of-a-kind boutiques, nightlife, bed and breakfast inns and much more.
