Download or read book French Wine written by Rod Phillips and published by University of California Press. This book was released on 2020-04-07 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A fascinating book that belongs on every wine lover’s bookshelf."—The Wine Economist "It’s a book to read for its unstoppable torrent of fascinating and often surprising details."—Andrew Jefford, Decanter For centuries, wine has been associated with France more than with any other country. France remains one of the world’s leading wine producers by volume and enjoys unrivaled cultural recognition for its wine. If any wine regions are global household names, they are French regions such as Champagne, Bordeaux, and Burgundy. Within the wine world, products from French regions are still benchmarks for many wines. French Wine is the first synthetic history of wine in France: from Etruscan, Greek, and Roman imports and the adoption of wine by beer-drinking Gauls to its present status within the global marketplace. Rod Phillips places the history of grape growing and winemaking in each of the country’s major regions within broad historical and cultural contexts. Examining a range of influences on the wine industry, wine trade, and wine itself, the book explores religion, economics, politics, revolution, and war, as well as climate and vine diseases. French Wine is the essential reference on French wine for collectors, consumers, sommeliers, and industry professionals.

Download or read book La fermentation malolactique dans les vins M canismes et applications pratiques written by RENOUF Vincent and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2013-10-18 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: À chaque étape de l’élaboration du vin, le vinificateur n’est pas seul ; il cohabite avec d’invisibles « collègues » : les micro-organismes. Chaque vinificateur se doit de bien connaître les micro-organismes qui agissent dans son moût puis dans son vin, et de distinguer ceux qui peuvent être bénéfiques ou au contraire préjudiciables. Ces dernières années, les méthodes d’analyse génétique ont considérablement fait progresser la microbiologie du vin. La fermentation malolactique et les bactéries lactiques du vin ont été pleinement concernées par cet essor des connaissances scientifiques. La fermentation malolactique est une étape relativement récente dans le processus d’élaboration des vins, mais d’une importance considérable. Tous les travaux réalisés en amont (qualité des raisins, déroulement de la fermentation alcoolique) et en aval (élevage, stabilisation et préparation du vin à son conditionnement) peuvent être affectés par son déroulement.Cependant, la fermentation malolactique reste bien souvent une étape de la vinification aléatoire et insuffisamment maîtrisée. Cet ouvrage est le premier travail de synthèse qui aborde à la fois les bases scientifiques fondamentales sur les bactéries lactiques du vin et le processus de fermentation malolactique, les développements récents de la recherche (dans sa première partie) et des situations rencontrées en production, au travers de nombreuses expérimentations et observations de terrain (dans sa seconde partie). Illustré de nombreux exemples précis et de protocoles détaillés, cet ouvrage s’adresse à tous les praticiens et professionnels du vin. Les œnologues, les producteurs, les laboratoires et les étudiants en œnologie y trouveront de nombreuses informations techniques leur permettant de mieux appréhender la complexité de la fermentation malolactique, d’optimiser son déroulement dans leur chai ainsi que les outils adaptés pour solutionner certaines situations problématiques précises. Les chercheurs y trouveront les applications pratiques de leurs travaux et des voies d’amélioration possibles afin de mieux répondre aux problématiques de terrain rencontrées au quotidien par les praticiens.

Book excerpt: The Original Grands Crus of Burgundy is a translation from works describing the vineyards of the Cote d'Or written prior to the establishment of today's system of Appellation d'Origine Controlee in 1936 and a discussion of how they compare to the modern system. For centuries, a number of authors ranging from learned amateurs to experienced professionals weighed in with their thoughts, including Claude Arnoux, Dissertation sur la situation de la Bourgogne, sur les vins qu'elle produit (1728); Claude Courtepee and Edme Beguillet, Description historique et topographique du Duche de Bourgogne (1778); Andre Jullien, Topographie de Tous les Vignobles Connus (1816); Dr. Denis Morelot, Statistique de la Vigne dans le Departement de la Cote d'Or (1831) ; Dr. Jules Lavalle, Histoire et Statistique et des Grands Vins de la Cote d'Or (1855) ; Rene Danguy and Charles Aubertin, Les Grands Vins de Bourgogne (1892) ; and Camille Rodier, Le Vin de Bourgogne (1920). More than a dusty history lesson, The Original Grands Crus of Burgundy provides a roadmap for the discovery of forgotten gems, hidden in plain sight. Crucial reading for all who love Burgundy.
Download or read book Science Vine and Wine in Modern France written by Harry W. Paul and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2002-07-18 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Science, Vine and Wine in Modern France examines the role of science in the civilization of wine in modern France. Viticulture, the science of the vine itself, and oenology, the science of winemaking, are its subjects. Together they can boast of at least two major triumphs: the creation of the post-phylloxera vines that repopulated late-nineteenth-century vineyards devastated by the disease; and the understanding of the complex structure of wine that eventually resulted in the development of the widespread wine models of Bordeaux, Burgundy, and Champagne. This is the first analysis of the scientific battle over the best way to save the French vineyards and the first account of the growth of oenological science in France since Chaptal and Pasteur.
