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.
