3. "Fantasy Life" by Matthew Berry, autographed & paperback

4. "The Juice: Vinous Veritas" by Jay McInerney, autographed & hardcover

This new collection, JUICE, by the acclaimed novelist (of Bright Lights, Big City and others) and “the best wine writer in America (according to Salon) is generous and far-reaching, deeply knowledgeable and often hilarious. Here McInerney provides a master class in the almost infinite varieties of wine and the people and places that produce it all the world over, from the historic past to the often confusing present. From such legendary châteaus as Margaux and Latour and Palmer to Australia and New Zealand and South Africa, to new contenders in Santa Rita Hills and Paso Robles, we learn about terroir and biodynamic viticulture, what Champagnes are affordable (or decidedly not), even what to drink over thirty-seven courses at Ferran Adrià‘s El Bulli—in all, an array of grapes and wine styles that is comprehensive and thirst inducing. And conspicuous throughout is McInerney’s trademark flair and expertise, which in 2006 prompted the James Beard Foundation to grant him the MFK Fisher Distinguished Writing Award.
