Napa & Sonoma Encounter 1（ISBN=9781741794465）

　　What Will Your Wine Country Encounter Be? Detecting a hint of chocolate in your Cabernet while admiring abst paintings? Lingering over a meal of oysters, endive watercress salad, duck-fat fries and farm-to-table treats? Try sliding down into warm volcanic mud before your massage or canoeing past sunning turtles and herons on the lazy Russian River. Encounter Sonoma goat cheese and a plummy Rose at a pond-side picnic after pedaling past creeks, sprawling vineyards and historic homes in Dry Creek Valley. Discover twice the region in half the time with a full-color pull-out map includes all listed wineries. Our expert author points you to the Wine Country's best - and most sustainable - establishments with unique itineraries and highlights help you make the most of a short trip. Local connoisseurs reveal their Wine Country favorites: from a chef de cuisine on using local ingredients to a winemaker's take on biodynamic Pinots.
