 Start to finish guide January 3, 2009
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.
Review By Craig Justice, Founder, Blue Merle Vineyard & Winery May 13, 2008
When we were planning our vineyard we needed all the help we could get. From Vines To Wines was one book kept by the bedside for constant reference during the planning and planting stage. (The other book was "Vineyard Simple." The illustrated guide to pruning is exceptionally well done. Now that we've made it through year 1, I find myself going back to the book time and again. I strongly recommend this book to anyone interested in planting a vineyard. Craig Justice, Webmaster of Winemaker's Journal and Founder, Blue Merle Vineyard & Winery
Especially good for trellising and pruning December 11, 2007
I gave this to my father and he was so excited because it focused a lot on building a good trellis with good illustrations and also good for prunning.
These are two things that lack in other books that i have bought him (and that I am starting to be interested in, too).
Of course the book covers all aspects of the grape and wine making process, but the trellising and prunning in more detail was very welcome.
Recommended on all aspects.
Great for Home Winemakers or Wine Students November 25, 2007
This is indespensible for home winemakers. Period.
If you are a person engaged in wine studies, this is an essential first look into serious technical winemaking aspects. Before delving into more serious technical manuals such as "Understanding Wine Technology" and "The Science of Wines from Grape to Glass".
Pros: wonderfully written in laymans terms
Cons: drawings sometimes difficult to distinguish
Complete resource May 26, 2007
We wanted a resource for the wine process from growth to the glass.
Everything you need is in here.
