My name is Lesley and I’m an experienced home cook with a passion for food, wine and baking, and who isn’t afraid to take chances on making up random recipes on the fly. I’m here to help inspire you and give you the confidence to try new things, or put some spark into your old favourites. Most episodes I'll have a guest where we talk about cooking, baking, wine, and anything else food-related that strikes our fancy. Sometimes I'll go solo and share something I've been cooking up and share my no-recipe-recipe with you. Thanks for tuning in and... Let's get cooking!

S4.E2. Book Review of Wine Witch on Fire and Monte Zovo Sa' Solin Valpolicella Ripasso

There are 2 reviews in this episode: first, I give my review of a new book by wine writer Natalie MacLean called "Wine Witch On Fire: Rising from the ashes of Divorce, Defamation, and Drinking too much." I was a beta reader for this memoir, and I've heard Natalie speak about it in person at her book launch as well as on her own podcast, The Unreserved Wine Talk Podcast with Natalie MacLean. In this episode I read a passage from her book that I found to be impactful for me, as well as giving my thoughts on the book as a whole (spoiler alert: I really liked and and recommend that you read it.)

Secondly, I give my tasting notes on this month's Wine Club selection, Monte Zovo Sa' Solin Ripasso Superiore DOC ($23.95 at LCBO.)

I'd love to hear your thoughts on this wine, as well as on Natalie's book once you get a chance to read it. You can reach me on Instagram @noreciperequired.ca, or join the Facebook group, No Recipe Required Challenge.
