Thin Lines John Pryor Fulkerson

After an inspiring vacation in France's Rhone Valley, a surgeon decides to grow grapes in the harsh northwest Connecticut hills and create fine wines from them.



In Thin Lines: A Vineyard Journey, John Pryor Fulkerson details his experience of gathering friends and family to help with the harvest, the crush, the fermentation, and the final preparation of fine wine.



Throughout this journey, he acquires much more than wine-he also engages more closely with friends and family while cultivating a profound bond with nature. Fulkerson's love of viticulture and wine making is evident as he chronicles his challenges and victories in eloquent detail. Sprinkled throughout the narrative are original poems that enrich the story and bring the reader deeper into the experience.

Whether you're a casual wine drinker or are cultivating an interest in viticulture, you'll find much to love in this story of one man's journey through the grape-growing and winemaking process.
