The peacocks tail is used to describe a wine that is wonderfully complex and ultimately rewarding. Surely theres no better metaphor for life. Weekends with Matt is a classic odd-couple tale of two very different men and the common ground that can be found over a shared passion. It was at the bottle shop somewhere between the chardonnay and the zinfandel that Peter realised he didnt have a clue about wine. On his way to a dinner party and in a mild panic he called Matt a wine-loving acquaintance who expertly steered him towards the perfect bottle. The selection was a hit but it was Matts passion that stuck in Peters mind. He decided to visit Matts vineyard for an introduction to the noble grape. One visit led to another and this unlikely pairing of a Proust-quoting intellectual and a farmer with a love of hunting found themselves bonding over life ideas vulnerability aspiration nature philosophy and of course a glass or three of wine. Like a tipsy Tuesdays with Morrie this well-crafted tale is as much a guide to life as the mysteries of wine. With thought-provoking notes and philosophical undertones this is a delightful story that readers will love to sip and savour.
