Product Description:


Every year, hundreds of thousands of visitors from all over the world visit the Robert Mondavi Winery in California's Napa Valley for tours, tastings, concerts, festivals, and other culinary and cultural events. In Seasons of the Vineyard. Robert and Margrit Biever Mondavi invite you to share the bounty of their table with more than 100 glorious dishes from the Mondavi family, the Vineyard Room chefs, and the great culinary talents who have cooked at the winery.

The Mondavis live the time-honored traditions that value family and community, with food and wine as partners that contribute to well-being and happiness. Their pleasure and their mission have been to deepen their own understanding of the food arts and to share their knowledge with as many people as possible.

The menus and more than 100 recipes in this book, beautifully illustrated by more than 75 photographs, are arranged according to season and use ingredients at the peak of their flavor. Any of the recipes in the book can be combined to create meals that suit you best, with the best ingredients that are available to you.

Whether you enjoy the lively Seared Sea Scallops with Citrus-Ginger Vinaigrette or homey Apple Tart with Almond Custard in the autumn, deeply flavorful Lamb Shanks with Red Wine and White Beans in the winter, spicy Hot Pineapple Curry and Yellow Rice in the spring, or the elegantly simple Fusilli with Vinegar-Marinated Zucchini in the summer, the food is sophisticated and utterly delicious.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Spectacular Cookbook with Wonderful Photography
This is not your standard everyday cookbook...in fact it is almost a coffee table book. The material in the book is a mix of recipes, information about wine and about the vineyards, printed on extremely fine paper.

The book is organized into four main sections according to the seasons of the year. Recipes designed for each season are included, and many of the recipes are simply wonderful. In addition to the recipes, spectacular photographs of vineyards, surrounding countryside and, of course of the food are included.

This is a wonderful book and it's a shame that it is out of print. I would recommend it to any chef who wants interesting recipes that include wine, as well as to anyone who is interested in wine. Bon appetite!
