Hot Off the Presses:
Kate's Newest Books

by Kate Heyhoe

What happened to 2003? Poof! Gone, quicker than George W. Bush at Thanksgiving dinner. I started out the year writing three books. Now, at last, I'm pleased to announce that my second book of the three is released and available.

HARVESTING THE DREAM
The Rags-to-Riches Tale of the Sutter Home Winery
By Kate Heyhoe and Stanley Hock

This is not a cookbook, but instead, it's a fascinating account of one of the nation's most important wine families, and their journey from a hard-working, humble ma-'n'-pa operation to becoming the fourth largest winery. They're one of the few big Napa Valley wineries still run completely by the family, and one of the most philanthropic in the industry. The book covers their migration from Italy, to the speakeasy days of Prohibition, to their accidental creation of the wine that launched their fortune: Sutter Home White Zinfandel. The struggles they endured, always with humility and unbridled generosity, will put a warm glow on your entry into the New Year, and will reinforce that big business doesn't have to be blemished with stock-market scandals or corporate greed. And, if you've recently tasted the award-winning Trinchero wines, you'll definitely want to see how this brand evolved out of Sutter Home's success. Plus, the book explores the challenges of the entire wine industry, and discusses where American wines are heading, in the rocky future of the global wine world.
