“Rhoda Stewart has put to words a long-needed epic on Zinfandel.
Her writing is as sensitive and destriptive as her photography. Rhoda has shown that the ‘romance’ of Zinfandel and of wine is not only a perceived notion. It is obvious that Zinfandel has touched her life--let it touch yours.”

Rhoda Stewart’s passion for everything Zinfandel shines through every page of this extended love letter to California’s most distinctive grape. Rhoda traveled throughout her adopted state and even
into Mexico to search out the origins and unveil the mysteries that have always surrounded Zinfandel.
Rhoda’s extensive interviews with the grape’s pioneers and current producers provide just the color and depth to make A Zinfandel Odyssey a vastly entertaining travelogue through a unique wine’s spirit--and a must-read for wine lovers of every varietal persuasion.

Complemented by Rhoda’s beautifully detailed photography which captures Zinfandel in all its seasons and climes, A Zinfandel Odyssey is written with a poet’s flair, researched with a detective’s
intense focus, and most of all, offered up as a lover’s enchanting, long-term romance with a grape and a wine she has come to know like no one else on earth.
