Customer Review: A Review
After seeing some of the negative reviews I almost didn’t order it, but I took a chance. And I’m very happy it arrived in a couple of days, exactly as described and it’s really good.

Customer Review: Not bad for $30 …
I sent this to my sister … just a token of affection from afar. She enjoyed it. Little samples of all sorts of goodies …

For $30, it was about as expected. Nothing too ritzy, and not too cheezy (no pun intended) either …

Lee Bailey’s California Country Wine Cooking
Lee went to California and put together menus that vividly capture the personalities of 23 wineries. There are two trademark special sections: one offers the best recipes from the wine country’s most talented chefs; the other, simple guidelines and thoughts on serving wine. 250 full-color photographs.

Customer Review: Gorgeous looking, and great recipes too!
Lee Bailey writes gorgeous books, that’s the first thing you notice, but once you’ve tried his recipes, and I have five of his books, you find that all you have to do is open the book, follow his straightforward directions and you have a terrific meal. I rarely even add salt, his recipes are that good. Always my go-to guy for important dinner parties, he outdoes himself in this book adding wine and California style. In this book, he visits top California vineyards to cook with their chefs and their wines. This book is organized with complete menus which is great and saves organizing time, but you’ll find yourself picking and choosing anyway since the choices are so good. Get this book and have a party!

Customer Review: Combination of creativity and beautiful photographs.
The receipes expresses creativity and imagination for the busies working women in today’s society. His combination of simplicity and freshest ingredients is attractive. Also, Lee’s pairing of food and wine leaves the guess work out of receipes. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my cookbook over the past few years and looking forward to purchasing others in the future. Thank you
