Jordan Salcito was drawn to wine from a young age (her father shared memories of making wine with his father in their basement in their Italian American community), but she didn’t encounter great wine until she moved to New York and started working harvests at world-renowned wineries in Burgundy.

Using her personal journey as a template, she demystifies this beloved beverage for everyone.

The Cleaving is an Arthurian retelling that follows the tangled stories of four women: Nimue, Ygraine, Morgana, and Guinevere, as they fight to control their own destinies amid the wars and rivalries that will determine the destiny of Britain.

They say that Arthur's half-sister Morgana turned to dark magic to defy him and Merlin. They say that the enchantress Nimue challenged Merlin and used her magic to outwit him.
