At Marcel Lapierre's | Sebastien Lapaque

In Villié-Morgon, where he has been producing an exceptional vintage since 1973 by allowing time for the black gamay with white juice to become wine, Marcel Lapierre is a role model in grape wine production. Contrary to technological and standardized beverages, devoid of soil and terroir, which flood the market in merciless globalization, his Morgon wines return to their original spirit. In this delicate portrait, combining a stroll through the vineyards and a conversation with a man of the trade, Sébastien Lapaque invites us into the intimacy of a winemaker, using wine as a window into the infinite. This book discusses oenology, but also literature, history, gastronomy, and landscapes. Because wine is both a product of nature and a subject of culture. Because the passion for wine leads to the friendship of the men who make it.
