About the book: 2009 / "Elisir of Love" is twelve romantic stories and at the same time a dozen wine labels. Light and sparkling, tart and velvety, aged and young, harmonious and provocative - the wines have their own character, sometimes they go to your head and drive you crazy. “Literary sommelier” Biba Merlo is convinced that any man can be likened to a certain brand of wine. The most unexpected associations are possible. Twelve love episodes from the lives of twelve heroines of this amazing, subtle and ironic novel confirm the author’s bold hypothesis.
