Media Reviews
"... as with all of Feiring’s writing, the intention goes beyond data to a place where passion is discovered through perspective." -- Imbibe
"Two fairly heavyweight books on the subject of organic, biodynamic and natural wines will certainly provide reading – and discussion – way past the 12th night. American author and natural wine advocate Alice Feiring’s book is not about natural wine per se, but about vineyard soils. The Dirty Guide to Wine is full of contentious opinion, discussing the ‘effect’ of different soil types and recommending wines based on that." -- Wine gift ideas for Christmas 2017 - Wine Pages
"... it can only be a wretchedly jaded or incurious enophile who fails to find in Feiring’s writings ample invitations for discovery and discussion." -- World of Fine Wine
Author's Bio
Alice Feiring is a journalist, essayist and the author of Naked Wine. She is the winner of both the James Beard and Louis Roederer Wine Writing Awards. In 2013, she was named Imbibe Magazine’s wine person of the year. Her blog, The Feiring Line (Alicefeiring.com) has been published since 2004. She lives in New York City. Master Sommelier Pascaline Lepeltier is one of the world’s top wine pros, on the floor or in the lecture room. From Anjou, France, she champions its Chenin Blanc. Beyond wine, she refreshes with Cantillon beer and beats the drum for the liqueur Chartreuse. It is her deep belief that the word terroir is not to be taken in vain.
