An affecting memoir from the countrys youngest sommelier, tracing her path through the glamorous but famously toxic restaurant worldAt just twentyone, the age when most people are starting to drink (well, legally at least), Victoria James became the countrys youngest sommelier at a Michelinstarred restaurant. Even as Victoria was selling bottles worth hundreds and thousands of dollars during the day, passing sommelier certification exams with flying colors, and receiving distinction from all kinds of press, there were still groping patrons, bosses who abused their role and status, and a trip to the hospital emergency room.It would take hitting bottom at a new restaurant and restorative trips to the vineyards where she could feel closest to the wine she loved for Victoria to reemerge, cleareyed and passionate, and a proud leader of her own Michelinstarred restaurant.Exhilarating and inspiring, Wine Girlis the memoir of a young woman breaking free from an abusive and traumatic childhood on her own terms; an ethnography of the glittering, highoctane, but notoriously corrosive restaurant industry; and above all, a love letter to the restorative and lifechanging effects of good wine and good hospitality.
