Wine terroirs | Landscapes and geology of Languedoc | Jean Claude Bousquet

Languedoc is a land of wines. Today, they have earned their reputation and their uniqueness offers constantly renewed opportunities for encounters and discoveries. Languedoc is also a land of geological diversity. The immediate observation of the landscapes hints at the variety of rocks, reliefs, and soils. It doesn't take much to imagine that the diversity of substrates influences the diversity of productions. This book is designed to provide arguments and knowledge to those who want to verify this intuition. Once again, Jean Claude Bousquet helps us observe and understand. He reveals how rocks and relief shapes organize terroirs, how vineyards have taken advantage of these endless possibilities to offer us wines that speak of the land and the work of men.
