From veteran wine writer and James Beard Award winner Alice Feiring, an insightful and entertaining memoir of wine, love, heartbreak, and the never-ending process of coming-of-age.Called everything from the Patti Smith to the Ruth Bader Ginsburg of natural wines, Alice Feiring is a special sort of wine writerthe kind who dares to disagree with wine ';experts,' and who believes wholeheartedly that the best wine writing is about life. To Fall in Love, Drink This is both a love letter to wine and a lifelong coming-of-age story. In a series of candid, wise, and humorous personal essays, Feiring serves up a memoir in vignettes. She tells the story of her parents' divorce, her first big wine assignment, the end of an eleven-year relationship, the death of her father, a near-fatal brush with a serial killer, pandemic lockdown, and moreand suffuses each with love, romance, pain, joy, and wine. Each essay is ';accompanied' by a no-nonsense wine take-away designed to answer the questions everyday wine lovers have about wineage, price, grapes, vineyards, and vintners. This frank, charismatic work is a refreshingly grounded addition to the popularand notoriously stuffygenre of wine-writing. Feiring has crafted a timeless, positively unpretentious memoir that will appeal to everyone who has ever enjoyed a glass of wine.
