Description
This is the book Another Wine which is IN ENGLISH (translated from ‘Un Autre Vin’) and written by Valentin Morel, of the Jura winery ‘Les Pieds Sur Terre’
How does one become a winemaker?
In 2014, when Valentin Morel left his civil service job to return to the family vineyard, he faced a series of challenges: infestations of flies and mildew, harsh winters, and scorching summers. He realized that cultivating the land today means living with the daily consequences of climate change. Closely connected to the land, the young winemaker recounts his return to the soil and his conversion to organic farming and hybrid grape varieties. Advocating manual labor as an intellectual and political commitment, he offers a personal reflection on our relationship to work, ethics, and the land.
