A celebration of wine and women
If you are passionate and believe in what you are doing, work is not a job but a way of life. For today’s enterprising women in the wine industry, it is their passion for their careers in wine that both defines them and unites them. More than a book about wine, Women of the Vine connects with today’s women in the wine industry, whose passions dictate how they lead their lives, how they fight adversity and conquer gender stereotypes in an often male-dominated workplace—and how their calling has taken them on the most rewarding journeys of their lives.
Brimming with helpful sidebars filled with tips and secrets—including storing wine after opening, unusual food and wine pairings, and tasting wine like a pro—Women of the Vine takes you on a new and very different journey to wine country, inviting you to enjoy these remarkable women’s stories one sip at a time.
Voted one of Wine Spectator’s best new books of the year for any wine lover’s library, December 2007
