Travelers and wine lovers get your hands on this book – forty of North America’s greatest wine regions are highlighted focusing on the USA and to a lesser extent, Canada. From west coast USA and Canada to East Coast USA and a few locations in between – Lonely Planet’s latest release of Wine Trails, United States & Canada offers a glimpse into these regions – highlighting select wineries and producers. Both larger established and newer wineries are profiled. With wine country comes food – and their ‘Where to Eat” section accompanies each region – along with information about recommended lodging.
A couple of perhaps surprise wine regions listed include Arizona, Idaho and Nova Scotia.
Like wines often are crafted, this book is approachable for the casual wine enthusiast – someone who wants insights into a regions that can often be overwhelming with choices based on sheer numbers of wineries. This read is great for travelers who enjoy visiting wine regions and are looking for a diversity of experiences – but aren’t necessarily serious collectors. The wineries or tasting rooms highlighted are accessible (either walk-in or some requiring appointments). But those who contributed to this book are highly regarded and a number have made significant contributions to the world of wine including Master of Wine and Master Sommelier Doug Frost, Lenn Thompson and James Tidwell among others.
