In Good Company and Good Cheer: An Evening of Wine Books with Roger Gale

March 27, 2019 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Massy Books is excited to host Roger Gale of Amicus Books for In Good Company and Good Cheer: An Evening of Wine Books! Be introduced to some familiar, but mostly unusual, wine tomes from Amicus’ 1,000+ book collection, dating from the mid-19th Century to the present. Come for a brief presentation and discussion around on your views on wine and reading about wine, questioning ‘What is the role of books on wine today?” Stay for wine, sherry, tapas, and the chance to browse and purchase from the collection. In good company and good cheer!
Wednesday, March 27th at 7pm
Drop by for mingling any time until 9pm.
Entry is Free but space is limited! Reserve your spot on Eventbrite.
