Are you sure you looked on amazon? A simple "winemaking" search yields
141 books. Of course, if you seriously want to consider using your
family's hills to grow grapes for wine, you should start with some books
on viticulture as that is going to be the most important and time
consuming part of your process.

Making wine is certainly no secret as there are a couple of stores in my
small town alone dedicated to supplies for making beer and wine.
