Handy Guide to Virginia Wineries introduces readers to Virginia's wine regions and wineries in one easy-to-read and accessible package. By providing a description of the wineries, detailing the wines they offer, and including prices that specify the tasting fee as well as the cost of the wine, it offers all the basic information potential visitors will need. The guide also covers special occasions sponsored by the wineries, such as live music, festivals, and charity events, as well as whether children and pets are welcome to the winery or if the winery is available to rent for parties or weddings. More than fifty maps show the precise location of the wineries, which is particularly useful for those located in regions where GPS coverage is often spotty or selects a route of unpaved and narrow mountain roads. An up-to-date directory, tour guide, and excellent source of reference, this book is geared to adults with an interest in wine and in exploring Virginia. With the fifth largest number of wineries in the U.S., Virginia's wine country is being discovered by more and more tourists and wine lovers from all over America.

A fascinating history of Virginia wines, documenting the wine industry's very foundation in this state. Go beyond the bottle and step inside the minds, and vines, of Virginia's burgeoning wine industry in this groundbreaking volume. Join grape grower and industry insider Walker Elliott Rowe as he guides you through some of the top vineyards and wineries in the Old Dominion. Rowe explores the minds of pioneering winemakers and vineyard owners, stitches together an account of the wine industry's foundation in Virginia, from Jamestown to Jefferson to Barboursville, and uncovers the fascinating missing chapter in Virginia wine history. As the Philip Carter Winery motto explains, "Before there was Jefferson, there was Carter. " Rowe goes behind the scenes to interview migrant workers who toil daily in the vineyards, makes the rounds in Richmond with an industry lobbyist and talks shop with winemakers on the science and techniques that have helped put the Virginia wine industry on the map. Also included are twenty-four stunning color photographs from professional photographer Jonathan Timmes and a foreword by noted wine journalist Richard Leahy.
