Napa Valley Wine Library Association Presents:

Tangled Vines, Greed, Murder, Obsession, and an Arsonist in the Vineyards of California by Frances Dinkelspiel

Distinguished journalist and author Frances Dinkelspiel brings us up to date on Mark Anderson, her miscreant subject of Tangled Vines: Greed, Murder, Obsession, and an Arsonist in the Vineyards of California (2016). The convicted arsonist died last March. Nearly $5M in inventory had gone up in flames in 2005 at a storage facility on Mare Island under his care. Collectors, wine shops and wineries lost entire vintages and libraries, including wine from Frances’s own family cellared for over a century. Reception to feature wines from wineries in Frances’s book and a book signing with the author after her talk.
