Description
Since antiquity and the close relationship between wine and the divine, to the gourmet escapades in today's vineyards, humans have continuously renewed their approach to this complex, benevolent, and spiritual "food". Not a single country with a temperate climate - and sometimes even with arid soil - has escaped this activity to consider it as a cultural heritage. Not a terroir, not a vintage resembles another: the pleasure of discovery is all the more intense as the knowledge of fine wines - considered as an emblem of savoir-vivre - becomes essential in an increasingly open world.
In this spirit, these pages particularly highlight the diversity of terroirs and grape varieties in each region, the origin of appellations, and classifications established over the ages. Some developments on wine tasting, on the benefits of wine, and its links with art and literature, pleasantly complement the whole. Numerous anecdotes, some important discoveries, make reading this book fascinating. May this book further endear wine enthusiasts to the vintages of France and the world - it aims to be a tribute to all winemakers who, both in the vineyards and in the cellars, express their incredible talent so skillfully to offer us pleasures of great nobility. Thanks to them, the entire wine epic spreads...
