Dominic's France: The Cool Climate
At last: a guide book to France for the independent traveller which seeks out the finest wine producers and best local restaurants!
Dominic’s France: the cool climate gives readers personal recommendations to the best wine producers, as well as local restaurants which serve their wines with the finest local food. The book covers the four northernmost French wine regions: Burgundy, Alsace, Champagne and the Loire Valley.
Dominic cycled over 4,000 miles through each of the regions in one non-stop journey from early May to mid November 2006, visiting vineyards, restaurants and wine producers throughout the country. No other book contains such a comprehensive survey of the finest French producers, and no other book provides such a personal introduction to them, offering reader discounts, tasting notes, and recommended food and wine combinations.
Dominic’s journey reveals the true heart of France, and his unique book gives travel itineraries and maps, tips for the independent traveller and a nose-to-the-ground insight into hundreds of food and wine establishments.
Dominic is an experienced UK wine trader who has lived and worked in France, and is as familiar with French culture as he is with the producers he will visit.
