Summary: Wine, Money, Real Estate, Love and Life...This is it!
Comment: This is a fascinating tell of Mr.Mondavi's first life and his second life.
His first life begins with his growing up on his family's vineyard. His second life, and where the real story begins, is his having to break away from the family, in his 40's, and start all over again from scratch.
Everyone knows Sam Walton's late entreperneurial start, more people should know Mr.Mondavi's story. By all accounts he was the father of the Napa Valley boom and every bit of the story is riveting.
I was thoroughly impressed by this work and learned a prime lesson on individuality. Mr.Mondavi had a dream that was counter to his family and he could do nothing but pursue it. He had to set the trend and he did. Wine lovers around the world should be grateful to him.
Thanks Mr.Mondavi, this book was really a Harvest of Joy.

Summary: Mondavi - The King of Napa Valley
Comment: The book was an easy read and I must admit I learned much about wine and the wine country. However, I am sure others as well as Mr. Mondavi were responsible for the changes in California wines. The book portrays Mr. Mondavi as "the prime force" in changing the valley's culture and wine industry.
Rating: 5
Summary: Understanding the joie de vivre
Comment: A must read book for anyone who not only has a "joie de vivre", but wishes to explore the foundation for truly appreciating the best. Mr Mondavi provides such insights in a most enjoyable and readable manner. Baccus himself would be delighted to read this book.
