For over 30 years, photographer Charles O'Rear has been fascinated
with wine and the process that transforms ordinary grapes into a
world-class wine. To understand the making of two of the most
renowned varietals, the bold red cabernet and the more delicate
white chardonnay, O'Rear traveled 100,000 miles, visited four
continents, talked with hundreds of winemakers, and captured
thousands of unprecedented images. In many ways, these books are
like the profiled wines themselves: full of character, lush beauty,
subtlety, and surprise.
In "Cabernet," O'Rear illuminates processes that the casual
observer never has a chance to see. He and his camera are
everywhere: looking down at vineyards from the window of a Cessna
flying at 5,000 feet; tucked inside a stainless fermenting tank; or
sprawled in the dirt of a September vineyard. Whether he's with the
pickers in the field, the vintners in their aging caves, or the
revelers enjoying the festivities of a successful harvest, O'Rear
truly captures the essence of cabernet's mystique.
