Vertical: Passion and Pinot on the Oregon Wine Trail

From the author of Sideways, the sequel to the world's most beloved wine novel. Its ten years later, and the two on the road buddies-Jack, now divorced, and Miles, dealing with new found fame as a writer-reunite and travel to Oregon's famed Pinot Noir wine country to attend the International Pinot Noir Celebration. Unable to keep it simple, Miles steals his septuagenarian mother away from her senior housing prison, which means bringing her pot-smoking caretaker as well. Not only do Miles and Jack find themselves in troubled, new relationships and almost unfathomable hilarious situations, but they confront sobering challenges of being over 40-and looking at 70. All of this set in the heart stoppingly, wine-rich beautiful landscape of Oregon's own Burgundy country.
