It’s Monday, Let’s raise a glass to the beginning of another week. It’s time to unscrew, uncork or saber a bottle and let’s begin Exploring the Wine Glass! Today, I’m thrilled to welcome a very special guest: Natalie MacLean. Natalie is not only a wine educator and critic but also the author of three fantastic books about wine. Her latest, Wine Witch on Fire: Rising from the Ashes of Divorce, Defamation, and Drinking Too Much, is a deeply personal and powerful memoir about resilience, reinvention, and the courage to speak your truth in the world of wine and beyond.In this episode, we’ll dive into Natalie’s journey, the themes of her book, and the challenges of navigating a competitive industry while staying true to yourself. Plus, we’ll talk about how her experiences have shaped her perspective on wine, life, and everything in between.While you are listening, it would be greatly appreciated if you could take one minute to subscribe, rate and review.
