Book Description
Product Description:
The renaissance of the Languedoc-Roussillon, one of France's oldest wine regions, has been arguably the most exciting development in the wine world in the last twenty years. Languedoc-Roussillon: The Wines and Winemakers is the
first book to explore the terroir, traditions, wine-making practices, laws, and, most importantly, the wines of the Languedoc-Roussillon. Paul Strang identifies each of this dynamic region's key wine-producing areas, explores their winemaking and then
profiles their finest producers and their wines. For each area, maps and photographs show the landscape, while sidebars offer information about climate, soil, and grapes. Equally detailed accounts of each significant producer's property - including
number of hectares in production, grapes planted, and wines produced - will be invaluable for anyone who enjoys the wines of this region. As the only illustrated guide devoted entirely to this region Languedoc-Roussillon: The Wines and Winemakers will be
the leading authority.
