For centuries, France has been the world's greatest wine-producing country. This book takes readers on a tour of the French winemaking regions to illustrate how the soil, underlying bedrock, relief, and microclimate shape the personality of a wine. It is suitable for both the uninitiated wine drinker and the informed gourmand.
