Paula Moulton

"Reflecting the tenderness of a writer who is as finicky about wordsmithing as she is about grape growing, her book is a heartwarming local version of Under the Tuscan Sun."
- Dr. Heather Furnas

"Her description of the journey she takes, the travails of being a farmer, finding homes for her grapes and becoming a new person in the process strikes me as unquestionably Californian. The book is a marvelous read. It has always struck me as being very similar in theme and disposition to A Year in Provence."
- Virtual Wordsmith

"Paints vivid pictures through her descriptions of California wine country and the relationships she develops - with the people and the land. This book is vaguely reminiscent of Under the Tuscan Sun by Frances Mayes. It's a beautiful book, one you'll find yourself sharing with your friends."
