For Esters' third edition of this wine-themed book club, Kathryn and her friend Jenna are leading a discussion of Root Cause by Steven Laine. Come join your fellow bibliophiles and oenophiles for this fun gathering on the patio.

We're taking a departure from nonfiction and delving into a fictional, mystery/thriller. The novel is about a traveling winemaker who comes back to her home vineyard in Italy, only to discover that phylloxera has infested the vines. As she and her friend investigate the "root cause," it's a race against time to prevent her family's historic property and vineyards around the world from collapsing. It's perfect for a late summer beach read, preferably with a zippy and refreshing glass of Italian white wine!

This is a free event, with glasses of wine inspired by the book available to purchase. To RSVP, please e-mail hello@esterswineshop.com with your name and number of people in your party so we can get a rough headcount. You can still come if you forget to RSVP!
