Summary
Reflections of a Vintner recounts the lessons learned, relationships forged, and observations made from an insider's nearly 50-year journey through the burgeoning wine industry in Napa Valley. From the mid-'70s, when there were less than 50 wineries, to the present, with over 800, Tor Kenward shares his recollections as the region became a world-class wine destination.
In addition to the wine knowledge Kenward imparts, the vintner shares stories of his friendships with legends of the modern American food and wine scene, including Julia Child, Andre Tchelistcheff, Andy Beckstoffer, and Robert Mondavi, among others.
In the October 2021, Judgment of Napa, TOR Cabernet was judged to be number one, outscoring legendary Bordeaux châteaux, Napa Valley, and international peers by leading critics and sommeliers. TOR wines, coveted by connoisseurs worldwide, received seven perfect 100-point ratings from leading critics for their 2018 Napa Valley wines.
With Kenward's impressive connection to Napa Valley and his legacy of creating inimitable wines, Reflections of a Vintner offers entertaining insights into an often intimidating and complex but highly enjoyable world.
