This book is a gem; a cliche, I know, but it has never seemed more appropriate. I "discovered" South West France only six years ago and immediately fell in love with the area. Geographically, the book covers a quarter of France and the diversity of wines grown in the region justifies a book of this size, (pp 356). Oz Clarke and others cover SW France in two or three pages most of which are covered in photographs. SW France does not contain the Classic wine growing areas like Burgundy or Beaujolais, etc, but hidden away in the region are wines every bit as good and generally less expensive, this book leads you to them. Paul Strang has visited hundreds of vineyards and has spoken to the growers. Each one has a story to tell about the ... Read More:

Searched the web, searched everywhere - but there was always a feeling of something 'lacking' before I discovered this book. It is a classic, and will remain so for many years to come. It will serve to further endear the Great Pyrenean to every owner - and I'm sure will convince many prospective owners that of all the gentle giants - the Pyrenean is the one to have.
