The 100 Words of Wine (French edition) by Gérard Margeon

Dive into the exciting world of wine with Les 100 Mots du Vin by Gérard Margeon, an emblematic figure in French sommellerie and head sommelier for the famous chef Alain Ducasse. This essential guide offers a clear and structured approach to wine through 100 carefully selected keywords.

From "Woody" to "Vinification", including more subtle terms like "Pleasure" or "45 seconds", the author deciphers the subtleties of tasting, the secrets of the terroir, and the importance of the grape variety and climate in wine production.

This little book, published by the Que sais-je ? collection, invites both the curious and connoisseurs to refine their palate and explore the immense richness of the wine world. Gérard Margeon goes beyond classic definitions to give the reader essential keys to understanding: the impact of vinification, the influence of the soil, and even the role of the glass or decanter on the wine's aromas.

This book is aimed at both beginners eager to understand the basics and enlightened enthusiasts looking to deepen their oenological culture. It is also an ideal gift for any wine lover wishing to enrich their library.

With its pocket format, it is easy to carry for your tastings, winery visits, or reading moments.
