       2016   From the author of The Audacity of Hops: The 
       History of America's Craft Beer Revolution comes the 
       triumphant tale of how America belted France from atop its
       centuries-old pedestal as the world's top wine-producing 
       and wine-drinking nation.     Until the mid-1970s, most 
       American wine was far from fine. Instead, it was fortified
       and sweet, and came from grape varieties prized less for 
       their taste than for their ability to ferment fast. Even 
       in big cities, a bottle of domestically made Chardonnay or
       Merlot was hard to come by-and most Americans thought wine
       like that was for the wealthy anyway, not for them.     
       Then a series of game-changing events and a group of 
       plucky entrepreneurs transformed everything forever. 
       Within a generation, America would stand unquestionably at
       the world vanguard of wine, reversing centuries of 
       Eurocentrism and dominating the Field. This change spawned
       hundreds of thousands of jobs and billions of dollars in 
       sales. European vintners found themselves altering 
       centuries-old recipes and techniques to cater to these 
       newly ascendant, free-spending tastes. The most popular 
       fine wines worldwide became big, powerful, and loud-
       American, in other words.    American Wine tells that 
       story.   All the big players and milestones are here, with
       never-before-told details and analyses based on fresh 
       interviews. Written in a fast-moving, engaging style free 
       of wine jargon, American Wine is the first of its kind: a 
       book focused solely on the rise of fine wine in the United
       States since the early 1960s, in California and elsewhere,
       and how that rise altered the way the world drinks-for 
       better or worse.
