The early pioneers, phylloxera, Prohibition, the cooling hand of the Pacific and the odd advantages of living on a fault line all get their turn, as does the 1976 blind tasting arranged by a modest English merchant that made the rest of the world pay attention. William Kelley writes on ripeness pushed to its limits in Napa, and Randall Grahm on sustainability under a warming sky. Steven Spurrier, Jane Anson and Esther Mobley also contribute.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA useful corrective for drinkers who file California under big Cabernet and stop there. Most valuable to people buying or selling the wines, and readable enough for anyone who simply wants the story of how the state arrived where it is.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DiVino.com.au","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44288395804731,"sku":"BOOK-15","price":85.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/0823\/1483\/files\/BOOK-15.png?v=1790122517","url":"https:\/\/www.divino.com.au\/products\/on-california-introduction-by-warren-winiarski","provider":"DiVino.com.au","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
