Throughout the wine regions of France the annual harvest brings
people of all ages and backgrounds to pick the grapes. It's hard
and hungry work - traditionally the vineyard owners feed their
temporary workers nourishing, hearty food to fuel the work in the
vines. In Recipes from the French Wine Harvest Rosi Hanson
describes the harvest cooking in six great wine-growing areas:
Burgundy, Rhone, Bordeaux, Loire, Champagne and Alsace. She
introduces the regions, and winemaking families who make their
harvest a celebration. She visited some of France's greatest
chateaux and domaines, from La Fleur Petrus and Lynch-Bages, Vieux
Telegraphe, Guigal and Domaine Tempier, Michel Lafarge and Domaine
Raveneau, to Louis Roederer, Zind-Humbrecht, and many others and
shared their meals. Presented here is a collection of authentic
recipes tested by families over generations - they are delicious,
full of flavour and great value in the best tradition of French
country cooking.
