Wine Book Club: A Hedonist in the Cellar
Rodrigo Cardoso
May’s book is A Hedonist in the Cellar by Jay McInerney. The book is a compilation of wine column’s McInerney wrote for House & Garden magazine. These short snippets provide just enough information to get you interested in the wine or topic, leaving you wanting to know more.
At this point, I’m about 100 pages into the book. I’ve found several interesting columns focused on lesser known wine regions. I also have a page of wines to try, or wines I found interesting based on the description. I should have enough to drink for the next year, if I continue my list. I’ve also been pleasantly surprised by the wines he discusses that I have tried and enjoyed.
