New Tell-All Winery Memoir Captures The Reality Of Living The Dream
Purcellville, Virginia (PRWEB) September 29, 2016 -- Any person who has ever visited a winery has at some point wondered what it must be like to cast off their corporate shackles and throw themselves headlong into the romance of the wine industry. Wine Composer and author Stephen W. Mackey’s new book, “Dream. Build. Believe.” takes readers on an emotional roller coaster through leaps of faith, reality television, home building, winery blunders, farming mishaps, pregnancies, business startups and eventually international award recognition.
George M. Taber, author of “The Judgment of Paris” says, “Stephen’s memoir is a delightful read for anyone interested in either love or wine, or both together.”
October is Virginia’s Official Wine Month, a celebration that finds wine lovers from around the country and the world visiting the Commonwealth to enjoy world-class wines while exploring Virginia’s stunning landscapes, rich history, and fine dining. Enjoying the heartfelt and at times hysterical story of Notaviva Vineyards—the world’s first winery to pair wine and music—will now give visitors an unparalleled and honest perspective on what it really takes to found a family farm winery.
Stephen will be appearing at signings at Barnes & Noble bookstores across Virginia, as well as the MetroCooking Expo in Washington, D.C.
