The Secret History by Donna Tartt
A cult classic book about pretentious college kids obsessed with Greek philosophy (and Dionysus) who spiral into darkness pairs perfectly with a cult classic Greek grape called Xinomavro, which literally means "acid-black" and tastes brooding, earthy, and moody with dried cherry, thyme, and leather notes from two brothers in Macedonia who make organic, biodynamic wine.

“"The snow in the mountains was melting and Bunny had been dead for several weeks before we came to understand the gravity of our situation.” I am always trying to chase the intense pleasure of my first reading of this book. An absolutely perfect murder mystery set at an elite northeastern college, where our outsider protagonist gets seduced by a charismatic Classics professor into a strange secret”

“One of my favorite novels of all time. For the outsider in all of us.”
