The Passion of a Lifetime: Michel Lafarge Vigneron in Burgundy is a captivating work by Anne Lafarge, paying tribute to a man whose life is intimately tied to the vine and wine in Burgundy. Michel Lafarge, coming from a lineage of winemakers, has skillfully perpetuated family traditions while constantly striving for excellence in the production of his wines.
Born in the thirties, Michel Lafarge grew up in an environment where the love of the land and wine was ever-present. His youth, marked by the upheavals of war, did not diminish his passion for the winemaking profession, which he embraced from a very young age. This book sensitively traces his journey, from his happy childhood to his unwavering commitment to producing exceptional wines.
Throughout his life, Michel Lafarge has been guided by an incessant quest for perfection, seeking to create great wines that capture the essence of Burgundy. For him, a great wine is the reflection of a unique terroir, ancestral know-how, and a year of hard work in the vineyards. This book takes you to the heart of this philosophy, where each vintage tells a story of a year, a climate, and a man devoted to his art.
Anne Lafarge, as the author and close to Michel Lafarge, brings a personal and moving insight into the life of this extraordinary winemaker. She explores not only the technical aspects of viticulture but also the humanity and passion that drive her father. Far from being a simple manual on viticulture, this book is a celebration of life, family, and the love of wine.
This book, published by Books on Demand, is a precious testimony for all wine and Burgundy enthusiasts. Whether you are a seasoned oenologist or a curious novice, you will find it a source of inspiration and a better understanding of what makes a great Burgundy wine.
