Meilleur livre de tourisme oenologique 2009


The book :

What are the red and white wines of Burgundy ? What cultivars are grown in this region ? What is an
"appellation contrôlée" ? Who are the "ice saints" ? What is the vine flower ? What is "bouéchage" ? Why do growers celebrate Saint Vincent ? What is phylloxera ? What part did religion play in the history of viticulture ? Is a winegrower a farmer, an engineer or a manager ? Why are Burgundy wines so famous ? What can be said about the wines of the New World ? Always eager to communicate his passion for wine, Claude Chapuis is a tremendous connoisseur of the wine world. In his chronicles, he tells the story of the vine from every possible angle, including the most unexpected ones: the birds, the wind, the tools, the monks, the Protestants, the philosophers, the media etc…His book is a real delight. It is to be smelled, tasted and swallowed in small sips. Like an old Burgundy wine.
