Description

This book is devoured like a novel, as the elements it contains closely resemble the genre's codes.

From the history of this part of the Champagne wine region to the history of Champagne wine since the 18th century, including the stories of the winemakers who have shaped and continue to shape this region, not to mention the long and difficult battles (won!) that have allowed the Côte des Bar to become one of the greatest vineyards in the Champagne wine region, everything is there.

But this book also represents a fantastic tribute to the – little-known – history of this region, to its past and present dynamism, to the uniqueness of the work of its winemakers who, directly and through their cooperatives, produce grapes whose qualities contribute to the renown of Champagne wine, and to its commitment to the protection and promotion of the environment which allows – through events like "Champagne Routes in Celebration" – the discovery of its various picturesque valleys, visited every year by tens of thousands of visitors.

Definitely a must-read!
