Although this small book runs up to 93 pages, since there isn't much text on each page I think we may safely conclude that "The White Vine of France"" is more like an essay about white wines in France. The first 45 pages are devoted to the history and wine making in the Elsas. The white wines from this part of France, Riesling, Pinot, Sylvaner, and Traminer are also my favourite wines. The second part of the book is mainly about white Burgundies, particularly about quality wines from show more Merseult and Chablis. Dutch fans of these white wines will enjoy reading this book.

The book was first published in 1951, and wine years that are discussed range mainly from 1939 - 1945, but there is much more information about the area, and tradition of each region and the overall quality of the wines.
