Books about wineries

Dear People

I'll have the chance to design a small winery and was looking for literature, not for formal design inspiration, more for practical bullet points that have to be taken in consideration. They can range from temperature and humidity requirements to detailed section and plans of the construction. I do this to be prepare myself and the library I visit as well as the internet haven't really helped yet. 

Thank you.

sorry, I couldn't resist. I don't know a lot about wine making, so I had to look for myself. Some interesting architectures in chile, napa and spain.

We had to design a demonstration winery in Richmond Illinois.

Kid you not the best reference was "The Complete Idiot's Guide to Starting and Running a Winery". - https://www.amazon.com/Complete-Starting-Running-Lifestyle-Paperback/dp/1592578187

Don't forget the Tax Paid Room!

Thx! Probably the best way to get to know, how the building is going to be used by the winegrowers

You should require your client to send you to Napa for a visit.

Purely for information gathering of course.

Thank you. I will look into it. I'm interested in comprehending the daily life of a winegrower - to be able to create the right rooms for the purpose.
