Paul Pintarich's stories let you meet and enjoy a cast of characters who have made Oregon and American wine life more flavorful and a lot more fun. Even better, most of these "heroes of Pinot" are still alive and breaking new ground as you read. They can still be found at Nick's, the International Pinot Noir Celebration, and, best of all, in their vineyards and cellars reaching for a better clone and a better wine for us to drink, while sharing most of what they know and believe with almost all comers. -- From publisher's description.
