A Book Signing and Conversation with Two Legendary Women in Wine

25 11th Ave, New York, NY 10011, USA

One of only 25 women to be certified as a Master Sommelier and the first woman to be named Meilleur Sommelier de France and Meilleur Ouvrier de France (MOF), Pascaline Lepeltier is widely considered to be the most decorated female sommelier in the world. Already a bestseller in France, her first book, One Thousand Vines: A New Way to Understand Wine gives the reader tools to understand the connections between the bottle, the producer, the terroir, and the vineyard while challenging preconceived ideas about the vine and its wine.
Joining Pascale in conversation is the James Beard Award–winning author and wine writer, Alice Feiring. Don’t miss the chance to hear from these two pioneers and legends in the wine world.
