What is Dreamers of the valley of plenty : a portrait of the Napa Valley about?

"With grace and an unerring ear for the revelatory story, Cheryll Aimee Barron delves beyond the Napa that everyone knows - the rolling vineyards, the quaint bed-and-breakfast inns - to describe and interpret a hybrid community with a quirky mixture of mores and traditions. She depicts the valley's people, including Andre Tchelistcheff, the man credited with starting the modern era of Napa winemaking at the midcentury, and Chateau Petrus's Christian Moueix, the French luminary who makes one of the world's most expensive wines. Dreamers of the Valley of Plenty is a lushly textured canvas that reveals a unique cosmopolitan culture with a passionate regard for the past and urgent ambitions for the future."--BOOK JACKET
