Kelsey Ford: Celebrate Short Story Month: 7 Recommendations Based on 7 Collections We Love (0 comment)
I love short story collections because of how much they manage to do with so little. They can dilate, expand, shatter, constellate. Within any given collection, you can move from the moon to a diner after midnight to that liminal minute right when you wake up but are still knee-deep in a dream..

Publisher Comments

Featuring more than 200 in-depth winery profiles, this definitive guide is the best single source of information on world-renowned pinot noirs from California and Oregon. Drawing on his encyclopedic knowledge of a grape variety considered by many to produce the ultimate food wine, John Winthrop Haeger offers this expanded, updated companion volume to his award-winning North American Pinot Noir. Here, with three times the number of winery profiles, he focuses exclusively on what he calls the Pacific Pinot Zone, stretching from the mouth of the Columbia River in Oregon to Santa Barbara in California and extending up to 30 miles inland. Each profile contains a brief history, background information, a summary of wines produced now and in back vintages, notes about winegrowing and winemaking techniques, an assessment of the producer's style, and tasting notes. An introductory essay provides an indispensable view of pinot noir in the United States-its history, current status, and the dramatic effect that the movie Sideways has had on its sales and production.

Detailed, descriptive tasting notes include selected vertical tastings

At-a-glance graphics give information on tasting room, price, and production for each winery

Regional maps locate key viticultural areas

Includes contact information for each winery
