More then SIXTY NORTHERN CALIFORNIA VINEYARDS, from the very large and very famous to the small boutique wineries, have contributed elegant recipes to this series of wine country cookbooks. Many of the dishes showcase wine as an ingredient - sometimes in ways that may surprise you - and each recipe includes a suggested wine to accompany it. We also feature signature labels from each winery, along with facinating histories and lore.
