Drinking Wine? Stories of Complicity Between Man and Wine (French Edition) | Trabucaire

Drinking Wine? Stories of Complicity Between Man and Wine is a profoundly original collective work that questions our relationship with wine, in all its historical, cultural, and symbolic richness.

Wine is not just a simple consumer product. It is the fruit of the vine, shaped by human labor, carrying traditions, values, and emotions. For more than 6000 years, wine has accompanied humanity in its rituals, celebrations, and reflections. It unites people through sharing and conviviality, while symbolizing a deeper connection with the earth, spirituality, and the passage of time.

In this book published by Trabucaire editions, winemakers and vintners from the Côte Vermeille, in Catalan Country, provide a multidisciplinary analysis of wine, far from conventional speeches. They invite us to rethink this beverage as a cultural object, a vector of social connection, a living memory of the territory and its expertise.

The book also addresses contemporary issues: the question of abuse, of course, but especially the function of wine in our modern societies. Why do we continue to drink wine today? And why will we continue to do so tomorrow? This questioning opens a path towards responsible consumption, rooted in meaning, measured pleasure, and transmission.

An ideal book for enlightened enthusiasts, the curious, wine professionals, but also for anyone who wishes to go beyond tasting to understand what lies behind each sip: a story, a philosophy, a worldview.
