John Schreiners Okanagan Wine Tour Guide or Fundamentals of Meal Management

John Schreiner's Okanagan Wine Tour Guide

Author: John Schreiner


Explore British Columbia's world famous wine region with wine expert John Schreiner.

The lush Okanagan Valley is internationally acclaimed for its wine industry. Updated and revised with 30 percent new material, John Schreiner's Okanagan Wine Tour Guide provides succinct, insider profiles of each winery.

Included are thumbnail sketches of proprietors, winemakers, and well-known wineries as well as many new ones. Schreiner peppers the book with fascinating facts acquired through his winery visits: Crowsnest Vineyards offers a red wine from the improbably named Samtrot grape; Hunting Hawk Vineyards has a second winery at the historic O'Keefe Ranch in Vernon, British Columbia; and Two Thumbs Up was the name of the Okanagan's first $100-a-bottle Meritage wine.

Schreiner guides the wine tourist to the best wines by sharing his own favorites from the region. Maps, addresses, telephone numbers and website addresses round out this valuable tour guide.

Updated information in this edition includes: extensive examination of the causes of food-borne illness and ways to help assure food safety, Food Insights to add interesting information about today’s food supply, manners in the cultural milieu, kitchen planning and organization, current dietary recommendations and requirements, and much more.
