Join us on Sunday October 29th from 1-3pm at Blacksburg Wine Lab for the Wine Lab Book Club tasting & discussion featuring A Year in Provence by Peter Mayle! 

About A Year in Provence ~

In this witty and warm-hearted account, Peter Mayle tells what it is like to realize a long-cherished dream and actually move into a 200-year-old stone farmhouse in the remote country of the Lubéron with his wife and two large dogs.

He endures January's frosty mistral as it comes howling down the Rhône Valley, discovers the secrets of goat racing through the middle of town, and delights in the glorious regional cuisine. A Year in Provence transports us into all the earthly pleasures of Provençal life and lets us live vicariously at a tempo governed by seasons, not by days.

Cassandra Kessman, our Wine Director, will be hosting the meeting. She is selecting four fantastic wines for us to taste. Chef Bryan will create a pairing board of house –made appetizers, cheese and charcuterie to accompany our tasting.
