In 1965, soil and climatic studies indicated that the Santa Ynez and Santa Maria valleys of Santa Barbara County, California, offered suitable conditions for growing grapes. Today California is one of the world's major wine producers and Santa Barbara County contributes significantly to the volume and renowned quality of this wine production. This book describes a complex and highly diverse modern vintibusiness that for better and sometimes for worse, has shaped the regions it dominates.
