Customer Reviews

Excellent Representation of Sonoma County

I used this book for a wine class I conducted focusing on exclusively Sonoma County wines. The book contains some very good general information about Sonoma County as well as information about a number of wineries. Gorgeous photos really capture the feeling of the County. As a former resident of Sonoma County, it made me homesick!

SONOMA THE ULTIMATE WINERY GUIDE

As a winery employee, I would recommend this book to both serious and novice winery visitors. This book is loaded with beautiful glossy photographs and detailed information on each winery, organized by region. It focuses on wineries only, with brief referals to nearby food and farms of interest. Each winery has it's own page, with a helpful quick reference in the left margin of the necessary details on hours, fees, directions, wines etc. This is a plus when you have limited time, and don't want to spend half your day searching through a guidebook. There is also a section that classifies the wineries by specific features that may help narrow down your selection when touring. The winemaking calendar and grape glossary would be especially useful to first timers. The size makes it slightly awkward to carry around, but the photos will make a wonderful momento when you return home!
