Napa Valley Maps is part of Maison FAYARD's map selection, with its known format, function, materials, and presentation kept explicit. This tactile topographic map of Napa Valley, California was produced by the region’s association of vintners to highlight the geography of the world-famous wine country. Sixteen separate areas define the sub-appellations of the broader Napa Valley label, applicable only to wines made within the valley and according to a very strict set of production laws. From the dry, cool mountains of Atlas Peak to the warm valley of St.

Helena, there is a wide variety of terrain and microclimates that allow for a strong diversity in wine styles. As a reference from Maison FAYARD, the book is useful both for a continuous read and for returning to individual regions, people, or subjects as questions arise. It also makes a thoughtful gift for a reader who wants more context around wine, food, travel, or the culture of the table without reducing the subject to a list of labels.
