GABLES WINE &
WORDS![]() Patrick@GablesWine.com
My name is Patrick
Alexander and for the past thirty plus years I have lived in Coral
Gables, Miami, Florida where, among other things, I teach wine
appreciation classes – hence the name of this site, GablesWine.com.
In addition to
teaching classes on wine, I have also written a book about wine
The Booklovers’ Guide to Wine.
From time to time I also post to my
wine
related blog.
My additional books
include three novels set in a fictionalized, and not very well
disguised version of Coral Gables – entitled
The
Greenhaven Trilogy. My first book, back in 2007, was a study of the French novelist Marcel Proust, Marcel Proust’s Search for Lost Time, and in June 2022 I released A Dance to Lost Time comparing Proust’s seven volume novel In Search of Lost Time, with Anthony Powell’s twelve volume novel A Dance to the Music of Time. My most recent book, released in July 2022, Building Paradise, is a history of Miami.
A full list of my
books is available at my
Amazon author’s page.
When not writing,
teaching, or drinking wine while sounding-off to the Miami Herald, I conduct historic tours for the
Coral Gables Museum and the
historic Biltmore Hotel. |
