*Pre-order* Angels in the Cellar: Notes from a French Vineyard (Peter Hahn)

Expected September 29, 2026. Available for pre-order now!

On the verge of a complete breakdown, Peter Hahn quit his globe-trotting corporate job and laid down roots in the French countryside—determined to make a go of wine growing.

In 2002, Peter bought a run-down, four-hundred-year-old “pile of a house,” ten acres of woodland, and a neglected vineyard in the Vouvray region of the Loire Valley. Angels in the Cellar is his moving back to-nature story, chronicling the demanding but profoundly rewarding work of traditional wine growing through the seasons—from pruning the vines to harvesting the grapes by hand to pressing and barreling them for fermentation.

An evocative, poetic account of a year spent working with nature, Angels in the Cellar is also a powerful repudiation of the global economy, hyper-consumption, and the impact of large-scale farming on the land and its ecosystems.
