"A Moveable
Thirst"
by Rick Kushman and
Hanke Beal
5:30 pm, August 30, 2007
Vacaville Town
Square
Along with a
special wine-tasting event
|
|
Hank Beal is a wine pro–the executive wine
buyer at an upscale supermarket chain. Rick Kushman is an ordinary
joe–a guy who enjoys wine but doesn’t know a lot about it.
Together, Hank and Rick set out to visit all 141 public tasting
rooms in Napa during the course of a year. The result is A
Moveable Thirst–an engaging, often hilarious book that’s
one part Sideways, one part Frommer’s. The first part recounts
their uproarious adventures on the road as Rick learns to sniff
and spit like a true oenophile (but never stops asking stupid
questions). The second part offers the most complete and detailed
guide ever published to Napa’s wine rooms. For wine lovers and
the more than 5 million people who visit Napa every year, A
Moveable Thirst is a great read and an indispensable guide.
