A Vineyard in Napa

"Trends in winemaking come and go but, over the past 40 years, Shafer Vineyards has delivered consistent, high-quality wines regardless of the trends. A Vineyard in Napa provides an inside look at how wine history is made." -Tom Colicchio "We all have our unique stories as to how we came to the Napa Valleyand chose to call it home. But the Shafer family history is a truly compelling tale and their journey is equally as inspiring. One doesn't have to be a wine connoisseur to appreciate John Shafer's story. His son Doug makes it clear why Shafer Vineyards has become one of the iconic wineries in the Valley--and in the world--today." -Thomas Keller"Wine at its greatest is not a beverage--it's a story. This is the story of the making of an American First Growth. From broken-down tractor to breaking into the highest echelons of world-class wine, Doug Shafer takes us on his family's journey. It is story no American wine lover will want to miss." -Karen MacNeil, author of The Wine Bible
