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's 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.
