Customer Review: Wine Across America: A Photographic Road Trip
I purchased this beautiful book for my brother and his wife who are wine lovers and travelers as well. They thoroughly enjoyed the book with it’s
wonderful descriptions of the various wines that are produced across the country….from the small wineries in the northeast to the larger more involved ones out west. The writing made my brother want to go out on a trip himself and find some of the wineries mentioned…
Customer Review: Beautiful photography tells the story of a great roadtrip
I read a review of this book in a photography magazine and thought the photography must be strong. They were correct. It combines wonderful photography with a fun story of an 80,000 mile roadtrip by the author and photographer, who are married. They find vineyards and winemaking businesses in all 50 states. It is a great book for any wine connoisseur.
It makes a great coffee table book.

Customer Review: Wine Book Review
I have only skimmed through this book but from what I have seen I believe that it will prove informational. Also, from this book I have subscribed to a newsletter from the author and find this very informative also. I would highly recommend this to a beginner or an old hat in appreciating wine.
Customer Review: A laugh-out -loud, down- to- earth educational read
Reading this book was like listening to a girlfriend talk about a subject near and dear to both of our hearts. While reading this book, I felt like I was experiencing her journeys and education with her- and with quite a bit of a sense of humor. All to often, it seems wine educators take themselves (and wine) too seriously. This book will teach you more about wine production, selection, and food pairing without being snobby and pretentious. It was fun, easy to read, and informative. I hope Natalie will be writing more books!
