Publishers Text

For the first time the "Gilbert & Gaillard Wine Guide" is available in English for wine lovers all over the world. More than 900,000 examples already sold! Over the past 20 years "The Gilbert & Gaillard Wine Guide" has built a solid reputation in France. The reason it's so successful is simple: all the wines presented are tasted according to the same protocol, ensuring a rigorous and impartial selection. The samples that are sent by the producers are blind tasted by Gilbert & Gaillard and their team, in a quiet secluded setting (tasting room) and noted on a 100 point scale for the utmost accuracy. And no question of marathon tastings! There are never more than 10-15 samples per tasting in order to maintain fair judgement and analysis. There are more than 5,000 French wines selected, along with their wine comments, their notes and recommendations on how to serve them. All the crus class, and the most prestigious wines are present, but there are also many smaller less well known wine growers to discover too. Each wine growing region is represented along with a detailed map. Each and every appellation is closely analysed and commented on. "The Gilbert & Gaillard Wine Guide" is the essential guide to discover French wines.
