Revised edition,New Edition
Synopsis
Napa Valley has been recognized as the premier wine producing area of California since the 1870's. This is the first study that explains how Napa acquired this unique reputation. The soils, climate, grape and human resources that have built this panorama of viticultural excellence over 160 years are explored. The author has visited every historic sight and talked with every living history resource as well as dug into original documents and periodicals.Published in cooperation with the Napa Valley Wine Library, scholarly attention is given to every detail. The modern wine lover will appreciate the connection between the original vineyards and today's great wine producers. Fascinating for any wine aficionado or history buff. Historic maps, charts of vineyard ownership and vintages from the 1880s to present., Charles Sullivan's Napa Wine: A History , is the engaging story of the rise to prominence of what many believe to be the greatest winegrowing area in the Western hemisphere. This new edition completes that picture, bringing to light more than a decade of dramatic changes and shifted norms visited upon the valley, from pholoxera-wasted vineyards to High Court-officiated territorial battles, told in a rousing, transportive narrative. Beginning in 1817 with the movement of Spanish missions into the San Francisco Bay area, Sullivan winds his way through the great wine boom of the late 19th-century, the crippling effect of Prohibition, and Napa's rise out of its havoc to its eventual rivaling of Bordeaux in the judgments of 1976 and 2006. Published in cooperation with the Napa Valley Wine Library, the book includes historic maps, charts of vineyard ownership, and vintages from the 1880s to present., When Charles Sullivan penned his 1982 book Like Modern Edens it was the first full-scale regional history of California Wine published. When the first edition of Napa Wine hit in 1994 it was the second. This new edition brings to light a decade of dramatic changes and shifted norms visited upon the valley, from pholoxera-wasted vineyards to court-officiated, direct-to-consumer shipping, told in a rousing, transportive narrative. This rich and informative history has been painstakingly documented and illustrated. Many of the photos have never been seen in print. The many charts and tables provide a statistical overview of Napa winegrowing never before available. This is a book for all wine lovers.
