Jul 3rdMy Kentucky Wine Book

A Wine Lover’s Odyssey Across Kentucky should be available within a month. It is at the printers now. I wanted to give you a preview of what to expect. With lots of photos, the book takes readers on a tour of thirty-four of Kentucky’s wineries. These were the wineries with tasting rooms and regular hours at the time that I was writing. For nine months, my husband and I traveled across the state.  With only two overnight stays and fourteen day trips, we were able to visit and tour the wineries, interview the owners or wine makers, and taste the wine.

The book gives a brief history of wine, a discussion of wine tasting and a description of the grapes grown in Kentucky’s vineyards. Readers will also find a map of Kentucky with the wineries marked, a glossary of wine terms, a list of grape varieties in the state, and a winery directory.

I will let you know when the book is released. It will be available at bookstores and wineries, and through my blog with a link to the publisher. Subscribe now and an e-mail will let you know right away when it’s available.
