Welcome to our domain: The passion of Belgian winegrowers
Belgian wines are doing well! In our country, there are more than 70 officially recognized winemakers, in addition to dozens of hobbyists who passionately practice the art of winemaking. The quality of the wines is also improving: they are increasingly gaining recognition at home and abroad. Gido Van Imschoot outlines the history of our wine heritage, which dates back to the time of the Romans. He visits Belgian winemakers and their vineyards. Welcome to our domain is the result of hours of fascinating conversations. About how it all started, the first successes and setbacks, the types of grapes and the hard work in the vineyard. A book full of wonderful encounters, spicy anecdotes and above all: an introduction to delicious wines from here! GIDO VAN IMSCHOOT, vice-chairman of the Professional Flemish Sommeliers, has been passionate about wine and gastronomy for years. This book provides an overview of the most important wineries in Flanders and Wallonia. The ideal guide to getting to know our Belgian wines and winemakers, at home or on site.
