Presentation :

An immense winemaker who left his mark on Burgundian viticulture, Henri Jayer (1922-2006) was a pioneer in sustainable viticulture. From the outset, he was rigorously familiar with working the vines while respecting nature. “Everything begins in the vineyard” is today the credo of all local viticulture. A remarkable taster, initiated by René Engel to taste the wines of all the great vineyards, he was convinced that the identity of Burgundy resided in the geo-sensory specificity of its climates.
This work by Jacky Rigaux, published for the first time in 1997 by Editions de l'Armançon, has retained all its relevance and it is indeed an Ode to the great wines of Burgundy that is the subject of this exceptional book.

The author:

Jacky Rigaux is responsible for “continuing education” at the University of Burgundy. Author of numerous works in the human sciences and on wine-growing terroirs, he promotes two original diplomas: "Wine and Culture" and "Practice of tasting through knowledge of terroirs".
