No state can claim a longer history of experimenting with and promoting viticulture than Virginia—nor does any state’s history demonstrate a more astounding record of initial failure and ultimate success. Andrew Painter’s essential addition to any wine lover’s library, Virginia Wine: Four Centuries of Change presents a comprehensive record of the Virginia wine industry. The author discusses a multitude of wine-industry trends, events, secondary industries, and jobs that revolve around the growing of grapes and the making and promotion of wine.
