I love wine, find it fascinating & enjoy books about it so
I decided to go the non-fiction route for today‘s #winetasting prompt. 🍷🍇🍷 Most of these are books I own/have read except for Wine Girl which is on my Kindle #TBR & the tagged book which is on my #wishlist just waiting for a good reason or at least some semi-reasonable sounding justification to buy it.😉 📚📚📚🤷🏻‍♀️📚📚📚
