Very Throiugh!
Highly recommended, it covers everything you need to know to get started growing your own wine grapes to turning your harvest into award winning custom crafted wines.
Great book, would suggest........
This is a great book on making wine from and growing grapes. Keep in mind, this is only for making wine from grapes. I wanted to learn to make all kinds of wine so if you are trying to do the same I suggest you buy this book and "The Joy of Home Wine Making" by Terry A. Garey
One book tells all
I am a weekend vineyardist. It's just a hobby that I got into a couple of years ago. Of the 1/2 dozen or so books that I have read on this hobby, I would rank this one at the top. I think the book is well written, well organized and easy to understand. I especially like the section on trellising and pruning. It does not leave you guessing as to what to do next or leave you thinking that you need to buy another book.
From Vines to Wines
When I bought this, I thought there would be many pictures inside, as that would be so great for someone to make their one Wine. There were no pictures at all. I am putting it on my EBAY, as I can't read. Three years ago, I fell off my new house and died. When I woke up, I could not read, write or talk. I was like a baby. I still can't read, and many pictures would be great for me.
Amazon have always been great for me, even though this one book was not right for me. Maybe it would be great for someone who can read.
Start to finish guide
An enjoyable and easy-to-follow book on growing grapes and making wine. Usually you would have to buy one book on grape growing and another on how to make wine, but Cox combines both in one volume. A worthwhile book even for those who make wine, but only think about growing vines.
