An Ideal Wine: One Generation’s Pursuit of Perfection--and Profit--in California

From David Darlington, author of the acclaimed Angels’ Visits (published in paperback as Zin), comes an inside look at how a handful of visionary winemakers has transformed—and been transformed by—the California wine industry over the past four decades. In the tradition of The Widow Clicquot and The Billionaire’s Vinegar, Darlington’s An Ideal Wine is a fascinating, lively tale of vision and daring, of business and politics, of nature and culture, and of the unlikely birth of a multi-billion dollar industry.
