Assouline’s latest masterpiece, Wine & Travel: United States of America, invites readers to embark on a journey through the diverse terroirs and rich viticultural heritage of the U.S. Written by celebrated sommelier Enrico Bernardo, this stunning 312-page linen hardcover reveals the landscapes, flavors, and personalities that define American wine culture.


From the sunlit hills of Santa Barbara to Oregon’s misty Willamette Valley, each chapter transports readers into the heart of iconic wine regions. The book highlights the Rhône varietals thriving along California’s Pacific coast, the Pinot Noir legacy of Oregon, and the rising prestige of New York’s Finger Lakes. Whether it’s Napa’s Michelin-starred pairings or Walla Walla’s bold Syrahs, Bernardo brings nuance to every sip and vineyard story.


The craftsmanship extends beyond storytelling. Featuring more than 400 illustrations, this Assouline book pairs visual artistry with cultural insight, offering an elevated perspective on wine tourism. The narrative balances history, sustainability, and winemaker passion—showcasing how American wine has evolved into a global force while maintaining a distinctly local soul.

For enthusiasts, collectors, and design-conscious readers, Assouline’s Wine & Travel: USA is more than a reference—it’s a tactile experience. Sized at 10 x 13 inches with a refined linen hardcover, it embodies Assouline’s signature blend of cultural depth and aesthetic beauty. Priced at $120, it’s both a luxurious coffee table statement and an insider’s guide to America’s ever-expanding wine universe.
