Title : Quai des Chartrons - Jean-Paul Malaval - Book
Summary :
The exciting odyssey of a family of winegrowers in the mythical lands of the Médoc. Quai des Chartrons brings back to life the lost past of Bordeaux's wine and port region at the turn of the 20th century, and exalts the passion of men in love with their land, keen to produce the best wine from it.
Faithful to their fathers' winemaking tradition, cousins David and Gaspard acquired a beautiful property in the Médoc region. In 1900, at the Paris World's Fair, the Clos Marzacq, the fruit of their harvest, received a gold medal. From then on, they clearly stated their ambition: to enter the highly exclusive world of wine merchants and conquer new markets. They therefore needed access to the Quai des Chartrons in Bordeaux, a gateway to England and the United States...
Will Gaspard and David be able to sustain their success and meteoric rise despite the test of time? Will their deep bonds, and their love for Hélène and Constance, survive?
Quai des Chartrons brings back to life the Bordeaux wine and port region of the early 20th century, and exalts the passion of men in love with their land, keen to produce the best wine from it.
