The Ponzi Vineyards Cookbook

Winemaker Nancy Ponzi shares her love for the culinary arts, blending her expert cooking techniques that range from Latin American fare to Italian cuisine, while exploring a range of complementary wines. Through these inspired recipes, this innovative cookbook expresses the Ponzi family's love of food, wine, and family. Ponzi Vineyard's first commercial wine was four barrels of Pinot Noir in 1974. Since then, Ponzi Vineyards has become internationally acclaimed for its limited production Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc, Arneis, Dolcetto and White Riesling. The recipes are organized by course and include holiday and celebration menus as well as harvest menus for feeding a crowd. There is also a meatless entree section.
