About the Item
The 1943 original map by L. Larmat, titled "Les vins des Côtes du Rhône - Châteauneuf-du-Pape - Tavel", is an exquisite part of the "Atlas de la France Vinicole" series. Printed by Dorel in Paris, this map meticulously illustrates two of the most prestigious wine appellations in the southern Rhône Valley: Châteauneuf-du-Pape and Tavel. Created during the World War II era, it stands as a testament to the enduring significance of French wine culture even in the midst of global upheaval.
Châteauneuf-du-Pape, one of the most famous wine appellations in the world, is at the heart of this map. Situated in the southern Côtes du Rhône, this area is known for producing powerful, age-worthy red wines. The map details the terroirs, which are dominated by the region’s signature large, round stones, known as galets roulés, that retain heat and aid in ripening the grapes. Larmat's depiction highlights the area's vineyards and geographic features that contribute to the distinctive style of Châteauneuf-du-Pape wines.
The wines of Châteauneuf-du-Pape are renowned for their complexity, with up to 13 grape varieties allowed in the blend, although Grenache is often the dominant grape, supported by Syrah, Mourvèdre, and others. The map reflects the region's deep-rooted winemaking history, showcasing how this land, influenced by Mediterranean sunshine and the mistral wind, produces rich, full-bodied wines with flavors of red fruits, spices, herbs, and a characteristic minerality. Larmat's attention to detail in representing the topography and vineyards of the region helps explain why Châteauneuf-du-Pape holds such a revered place in French wine.
On the same map, Larmat includes Tavel, an appellation to the west of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, known for producing some of the finest rosé wines in France. Tavel is unique in that it is an appellation entirely dedicated to rosé production. The soils here, a mixture of gravel, limestone, and clay, are particularly well-suited to crafting structured and robust rosé wines that are deeper in color and flavor than many other rosés produced around the world. These wines are known for their notes of ripe berries, watermelon, and herbs, with a richness and complexity that make them suitable for aging—an unusual trait for rosé wines.
The map highlights the importance of Tavel within the larger Rhône wine landscape, emphasizing the diversity of the Rhône region’s offerings. While Châteauneuf-du-Pape is celebrated for its bold reds, Tavel’s prestigious rosés offer a refreshing counterpart, showcasing the versatility of the southern Rhône terroirs.
Larmat’s map not only serves as a practical guide for understanding the geography and terroir of these appellations but also as a piece of art. The carefully crafted details—such as the layout of the vineyards, the depiction of the river Rhône, and the intricate border designs—make it a visually striking piece. This artistry, combined with its historical value, makes the map highly sought after by collectors, wine professionals, and enthusiasts alike.
The "Les vins des Côtes du Rhône - Châteauneuf-du-Pape - Tavel" map represents a significant moment in French winemaking history. Created during a period of great turmoil, it captures the enduring importance of these two appellations in the broader context of France’s viticultural heritage. The fact that these areas continued to produce exceptional wines despite the difficulties of World War II is a testament to the resilience of the French wine industry and its deep-rooted connection to the land.
Today, both Châteauneuf-du-Pape and Tavel wines remain globally acclaimed, and Larmat’s map offers an invaluable window into the wine culture of the early 20th century. The map not only serves as a practical reference for those interested in the specific geography of the vineyards but also stands as a beautiful homage to the craftsmanship, dedication, and history of the French winemaking tradition.
