Bloggerview #15 Who: Alice Feiring Blog: Veritas In Vino Where: http://www.alicefeiring.com/ Alice Feiring is not incapable of pulling her punches.

I had a great time at Alice Feiring's book party in Manhattan the other night. A pleasure to celebrate her achievement with her and a load of various wine people, writers, at least one actor (Dion Graham of The Wire!) and publishing types.
