Co-hosted by the Sonoma County Wine Library Association

Join us for an author talk with Michael Sinowitz who will discuss topics from his new book Finding Meaning in Wine. The book explores the debates about how to evaluate wine and the problems inherent in numerical scoring as well as evaluative tasting notes, whether winemakers can be artists, the discourse in wine culture involving natural wine and biodynamic farming, as well as how people judge what makes a wine great. Program is free and wine will be available for a small donation.
