July 2016 Reading & Tasting

Book

This July, let's read My Brilliant Friend by Elena Ferrante. It's a story about two friends growing up in Naples, Italy. The book is actually book one in a series, in case you like it so much and want to continue on. 

Wine

We'll pair that with a loose wine recommendation: natural/organic/sustainable/biodynamic wines. I drink natural wines a ton, not because they are made without chemicals (although that sounds good), but because they are often super earthy/unfiltered/funky, which I love. I also realize they aren't for everyone, so bringing an organic/sustainable/biodynmic wine, too. 

You're probably like, what's the difference? Wine Spectator is here to help.
