'A sumptuous treat' Bolu Babalola
'Breathtaking ... dare I say, intoxicating' Okechukwu Nzelu
A mysterious invitation to drink the oldest bottle of wine in the world - who could resist?
A wine influencer, a rising star sommelier, a caustic food critic and an ingenuous American millionaire gather at a sprawling French vineyard estate at the request of a renowned Grand Sommelier. Each arrives at a crucial point in their lives, and each has something to prove. As glasses are emptied, rivalries fermented and secrets spilled, the guests and their host must confront hard truths that could change their lives forever.
Heady and subtly powerful, Lush is a bittersweet reckoning with class, beauty, hedonism and desire.
