Summary
"The annual arrival of the "Beaujolais Nouveau" is one of the most exciting events in the wine-lover's calendar. Every year, thousands eagerly anticipate the promise of the new vintage - a wine that is reminiscent of the warmth and charm of the place where it is grown."--BOOK JACKET. "Michael Buller takes us on an intimate tour of the unique Beaujolais legion of France, where we visit the small family-owned vineyards, the grand wine chateaux, and the cafe's and restaurants. Pierre Cottin's vivid photography captures the energy of the harvest, the exuberance of the harvest festivals, and the "pride of place" that is as much a part of the Beaujolais region as the wine itself. We meet the people of Beaujolais, too, who are as vigorous and expressive as the wine they produce: Papa Louis Brechard, age 86, who organized the first winegrowers' cooperative; Comte Henri de Rambuteau, owner of Chateau Des Granges; Georges Duboeuf, famous negotiant; and the celebrated chefs of Lyon, including Paul Bocuse and La Mere Brazier."--BOOK JACKET. "Complete with recipes for regional culinary specialties, a list of wine cellars open to the public for tasting, Beaujolais vocabulary and more, In Beaujolais is a testimonial to a way of life that is steeped in its own traditions of winemaking and the wine trade yet continues to give thanks and respect to the bounty that nature has so generously provided."--BOOK JACKET.
