In recent decades, this region has come to be defined by its lifestyle just as much as its wines. It has developed its own ethos, one whose contemporary expression is creative, sustainably minded, art-filled, and bathed in light. It has a youthful attitude and a decided sense of fun. Central to this distinct way of life is the indoor-outdoor experience; today's homes seamlessly integrate the region's sublime scenery and climate with its cuisine and lifestyle. <i>At Home in the Wine Country</i> pays homage to a region that is ever innovating, adapting, and evolving and showcases the best of design and lifestyle in California's iconic landscapes.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"An apt addition to your coffee table ...."-- "Sunset" (10/22/2021 12:00:00 AM)<br><br>"If you are as enamored with Wine Country's architecture and design as we are, then you won't want to miss this love letter to the region's style.
