To fall in love, drink this: "The Dirty Guide to Wine" by Alice Feiring.
Available in stock
With this book, the eighth (and nothing less than her best according to the New York Times), Alice Feiring mainly offers us a grand narrative of transmission, as much about life as about wine, linking the intimate to the universal with natural ease. Because, "more than any other art form, wine and vine are linked to happiness and sorrow, family, nature, and the attempt to control the uncontrollable, as in love."

Description
Through a wide range of personal stories – how she almost became Nina Simone's assistant by wanting to offer her a Vouvray, how she played the role of a wine plumber for a plumber unlucky in love, how she found herself having to choose a bottle for Björk, how one of the most infamous serial killers in the United States approached her; through her numerous travels as well, in Italy, Georgia, Mexico or Chile; and also the story, the grand one, in the shadow of Stalin, Pinochet or Auschwitz... not to mention, finally, a beautiful love story – Alice Feiring gently leads us through the flavorful wake of her memories, sparkling and poignant like an old champagne mellowed by age, all sprinkled with extremely wise wine tips.
