Presentation :
Through a wide range of real-life stories - how she almost became Nina Simone's assistant by wanting to offer her a Vouvray, how she acted as a wine plumber for a plumber who was unhappy in love, how she finds herself having to choose a bottle for Björk, how one of America's most infamous serial killers approached her; also through his numerous travels, to Italy, Georgia, Mexico and Chile; and again history, the great one, in the shadow of Stalin, Pinochet or Auschwitz...
without forgetting, finally, a beautiful love story - Alice Feiring gently takes us into the delicious trail of her memories, sparkling and touching like an old champagne improved by age, all sprinkled with ultra-wise wine advice. But with this book, the eighth (and nothing less than her best according to the New York Times), Alice Feiring offers us above all a great story of transmission, as much about life as about wine, linking the intimate to the universal with very natural evidence.
Because, “more than any other form of art, wine and the vine are linked to happiness and sorrow, to family, to nature, to the attempt to control the uncontrollable, as in love”.
