A book on "White Stone, Black Wine" by Amanda Lawrence

Established near Cahors, Amanda Lawrence is a writer and journalist. Why such a title for a book? "White stone" refers to the white Quercy, - named for its white stone - a wild, sparsely populated area of rural France. As an Englishwoman, she experienced the joys of rural life and the pleasures of tasting the local delicacies, including the Black Wine of Cahors.

I really loved reading Michael Sanders' Families of the Vine. It really captured the place and people of Cahors in an excellent light. Just opened a Chateau du Cedre "Le Prestige" '04 which is absolutely gorgeous. Review is up on www.sourgrapes.ie

Thank you, Lar, for this comment. I'm glad you liked the Chateau du Cedre Le Prestige 2004. That's the wine I'll taste during my presentation on Web Marketing at the Society of Wine Educators' International Conference on May 30th in New Orleans, Louisana. The Black Wine of Cahors is the case study I'll present.
