It's partially my fault as I spent the last year going to school for wine to obtain my sommelier certification. The problem was that we did not spend much time on US wine, or new world wine at all for that matter. Turns out I was very very familiar with the information already with minimal exposure. Too much time spent on travel tidbits. I wanted a good foundation of all the regions and subregions, but this book doesn't really focus on wine knowledge. I guess it's more of a consumer handbook, with lots of producers and recommendations. This information is also a very important aspect of wine knowledge. I am happy with the book anyway. The price is good, and it does have lots of tidbits of information. In the context that it is a "Dummy" book, I would highly recommend it. Summary: Five-star California wine guide from America's first couple of wine writing. Rating: 5 Our first wine loves were Californian. While we have since taken a virtual trip around the world through tasting grape varietals from outer reaches of the globe, Ed McCarthy & Mary Ewing-Mulligan's CALIFORNIA WINE FOR DUMMIES is a delicious homecoming. Meticulously researched and thoughtfully written, this book is an ideal overview to the pleasures of America's #1 wine state. Highly recommended for all wine book collections.
