 Very imcomplete May 24, 2008
Limited information and so many wineries were left out. Livermore, where I live, has numerous wineries, especially Wente and Concannon which are world renown, was not mentioned at all. Even the areas they mentioned, such as Napa and Sonoma, were not covered as they deserve. I realize that this is a field guide and designed to cover the most "popular" and "newsworthy", but if you are real wine enthusiast, you will probably be as disappointed as I was.
 A pick for any California visitor or resident who loves wine and travel. June 17, 2007

There are plenty of wine travel books on the market, but what makes CALIFORNIA WINE COUNTRY special is several attributes. First, a coat-pocket-sized appearance with a hard cover lends to take-along tote and easy consultation, especially the numerous maps and charts with display the latest wine country wineries, hotels, restaurants and more. Review of hundreds of wineries from 11 top regions throughout the state also lend to travelers who plan on going beyond the usual Napa/Sonoma Northern California regions. From suggested touring routes to winery web pages, phones, descriptions of wines and more, CALIFORNIA WINE COUNTRY is a top field guide not to be missed: a pick for any California visitor or resident who loves wine and travel.

 California Wine Country: A Sunset Field Guide May 14, 2007

Ordered this book as a gift and received it just before we were heading for visit to California. We decided to keep it and use it for ourselves. We visited areas "off the beaten path" and were delighted to visit some of the wineries highlighted and to find others on our own. Would have liked maps to have given greater detail, but that would be our only quibble.
