Wine Witch on Fire – The Natalie MacLean Memoir.
THE SHOW
“Natalie MacLean had it all – an accomplished husband, a high-profile wine writing career and an email signature of “Chief of Wine Happiness.” But her life fell apart when her husband departed, she started to drink too much and a social media mob came after her.
Wine Witch on Fire is the triumphant story of how MacLean pushed back against sexism in the wine industry, found love and drew on her female “witching” powers to turn obstacles into opportunities.”
Francis Dinkelspiel bestselling author of Tangled Vines
The full title of Natalie MacLean’s book is
Wine Witch on Fire
Rising from the Ashes of Divorce, Defamation and Drinking Too Much
When I read that Natalie had written a memoir that was both dark, transparent and funny, I knew I had to ask for an interview.
The memoir was surprising in its transparency and elements very familiar to me.
Receiving the wines, studying the info, sipping and at times fully tasting the wines that arrived.
The most interesting wines were always paired with food, as they were intended.
I had page after page of questions written out but in the end, like all great engaging conversations, there was little time to check on notes or questions. Just make sure you’re recording and exchanging any and all opinions and thoughts.
I do hope you like the conversation. The book is even better.
You can get Natalie MacLean’s new memoir Wine Witch on Fire: Rising from the Ashes of Divorce, Defamation, and Drinking Too Much in paperback, ebook or audiobook from these retailers.
The video version of the interview can be found on the terrydavidmulligan YouTube Channel.
