Atlas of unusual wines

Vines growing on a slag heap in northern France, wine produced in the Gobi Desert, and grapevines reaching fifteen metres high in southern Europe: around the world, some winemakers are pushing the boundaries of viticulture.

Night harvests, a "wine of peace' blending more than six hundred grape varieties from around the world, ice wines from Quebec, double harvests in Taiwan, grapes picked on December 31, or classical music played among the vines... This atlas explores some of the most unusual wines and winemaking practices on the planet. It highlights winemakers who deliberately step off the beaten path, cultivating vines in unexpected climates and unusual terroirs. Some revive forgotten grape varieties, others experiment with innovative winemaking techniques, all contributing to a constantly evolving global wine landscape.
