Publisher's Synopsis
The battle for France's greatest treasure When France fell to the Nazis in 1940 the German army began a campaign of pillaging their wine. Like others in the French Resistance, wine makers mobilised to oppose their occupiers, but the tale of their heroism has remained largely unknown - until now. WINE AND WAR tells the alternately thrilling and harrowing story of the French wine producers who undertook ingenious and often daring measures to save their finest and most precious crops and bottles as the Germans closed in on them.
