French winemaker Barton & Guestier (B&G) has teamed up with 31 leading sommeliers to produce a book reviewing all the AOP (Appellation d’Origine Protégée) wines in its portfolio.
Words of Sommeliers includes comments from three Best Sommeliers of the World, five Master Sommeliers and participants in the ASI Best Sommelier of the World competition. The sommeliers represent 29 nationalities.
Barton and Guestier Deputy General Manager Philippe Marion described the project as “another testimony of B&G’s close relationship with the trade”.
“For many years now, B&G has nurtured a very close relationship with this key element of the wine industry: the sommeliers. We have always had their support and we wanted, with this project, to thank them by bringing them to light.
“The sommeliers are our best ambassadors across the world,” Marion said.
