Lelaine Lau and 403 Present - The Feiring Line.
Alice Feiring is a James Beard Foundation Award-winning wine writer and journalist with a deep passion for, and knowledge of her subject. She is feisty, outspoken, and a champion of natural wines - those made with nothing added and nothing taken away, (thus allowing for a true showing of the grape’s nature and vintage). Her book, The Battle for Wine and Love or How I Saved the World From Parkerization takes on Robert Parker’s hegemony, positing that palates are highly individual. It has kicked up such a stir in the wine establishment that she has created a polarizing effect, being called both the Michael Pollan of wine as well as its ’pot stirrer.’ Who knew wine could be so controversial?
Nevertheless, her fearless take on wine has won her many fans among independent thinkers and drinkers who have been disenfranchised by Parker, the world’s most powerful palate.
Please join Lelaine and Alice Feiring at the next 403, where they’ll dig into the fallacy of absolute palates, oeno-powers, and how natural wines are shaking the wine establishment to its core.
