Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

In A Hedonist in the Cellar, Jay McInerney gathers more than five years’ worth of essays and continues his exploration of what’s new, what’s enduring, and what’s surprising–giving his palate a complete workout and the reader an indispensable, idiosyncratic guide to a world of almost infinite variety.Filled with delights oenophiles everywhere will savor, this is a collection driven not only by wine itself but also the people who make it.

An entertaining, irresistible book that is essential for anyone enthralled by the myriad pleasures of wine.

Synopsis:

The popular novelist and wine connoisseur brings together five years of essays on fine wine, examining what's new, what's enduring, and what's surprising in an idiosyncratic, anecdotal guide to the world of wine. Reprint.
