“Paul Strang has been a main driver of the renaissance of South West France. This new edition confirms the coming-of-age of Languedoc
Roussillon as France’s new fine wine region, a work of reference and a beautiful volume that wouldn’t have been possible even five years ago, or without the combination of Paul’s research and Jason’s painterly eye. It’s already led me to brilliant wines I’ve never met before.”
