Wines and distillation in Lorraine

For a long time in the shadow of its prestigious Alsatian neighbor, the Lorraine vineyard, one of the oldest in France, has managed to rise to the forefront of French viticulture thanks to the Côtes de Toul, wines of Moselle, Côtes de Meuse, and more modestly, the blue wine of the Vosges. This book, the first of its kind, is a meticulous journey into the heart of these wine regions. It bears witness to the past and present, shedding light on the wines of Lorraine as well as the men and women who work daily to restore the vineyards' prestige. This book is also a tribute to the mirabelle plum and to all the distillers and brandy distillers who turn it into a spirit with intoxicating fragrances. Furthermore, it offers recipes from chefs, created using our wines or beverages made from small fruits.
