Presentation:

The vine in Brittany: a unicorn, a utopia or a resurrection? If global warming is redistributing the wine-growing cards today, vines have always existed in Brittany. Surprisingly, it did not have the same influence as in Île-de-France or Champagne, which do not benefit from a milder climate. And if all regions of France have been able to recover from the terrible phylloxera disease, Brittany has thrown in the towel apart from a few remaining vines. The renaissance of Breton wine re-examines historical questions, the choice of organic production or not, hybrid grape varieties or not, production of white, rosé, red and/or sparkling wine, typicity, future IGP or wines " free”, etc.

Testimonies from project leaders, trainers and specialists shed light on this revival of a utopian wine which is now becoming a delicious reality.
