Book + Bottle: Sunday, September 27th 4:30-5:30PM

We’re excited for our partnership with our friends at Norwich Bookstore! Each month, Book + a Bottle brings together both familiar and new faces for lively conversation, thoughtful reads, and wines chosen to complement the story just as much as the discussion. Our September featured read is The Mad Wife by Meagan Church. This gripping, atmospheric novel delves into the secrets, societal pressures, and quiet defiance of a woman fighting for her own truth within the rigid confines of marriage and tradition. Rich in historical detail and psychological suspense, Church weaves a haunting and unforgettable story exploring love, agency, and the dangerous friction between expectations and reality. To mirror the novel's rich, evocative depth and lingering emotional tension, this month’s selection is the Bruno Lafon Les Fleurs Rouge. Expressive and beautifully structured, this French red features vibrant notes of dark berries, subtle floral aromas, and a warm, velvety finish. Its well-balanced palate and smooth character make it the ideal companion for dissecting the dark, captivating layers of Church’s storytelling.
