Join Natalie MacLean in conversation with Rebecca Meir about Natalie’s powerful new memoir, Wine Witch on Fire: Rising from the Ashes of Divorce, Defamation, and Drinking Too Much, now a national bestseller (Globe and Mail). It’s the story of how one woman must resurrect her life and career in the glamorous but sexist wine industry, fighting for her son and her reputation. Accompanied by a witty, tongue-in-cheek tasting of two complementary wines, Natalie also shares juicy, behind-the-scenes stories about those who make, market and write about wine. This true coming-of-middle-age story is about transforming your life and finding love along the way. You can get the free companion guide with book club discussion questions and wine tasting tips at Winewitchonfire.com.

Moderated by Rebecca Meir.

Wine provided by Chloe Wine Collection and Tribute Wine.

This event will be followed by a book signing.
