Winescapes are unique agricultural landscapes that are shaped by
the presence of vineyards, wine-making activities, and the wineries
where wines are produced and stored. Where viticulture is
successful it transforms the local landscape into a combination of
agriculture, industry, and tourism. This book demystifies
viticulture in a way that helps the reader understand the
environmental and economic conditions necessary in the art and
practice of wine making.Distinctive characteristics of the book
include a detailed discussion of more than thirty grape cultivars,
an overview of wine regions around the country, and a survey of
wine publications and festivals. Gary Peters discusses the major
environmental conditions affecting viticulture, especially weather
and climate, and outlines the special problems the industry faces
from lack of capital, competition, and changing public tastes.
