About the Item
The 1943 original map by L. Larmat from the "Atlas de la France Vinicole" series, titled "Les vins des Côtes du Rhône - Groupe Septentrional", is a beautiful and historically significant representation of the northern vineyards of the Rhône wine region. Published and printed by Dorel in Paris during the German occupation of France in World War II, this map stands as both a technical cartographic document and a visual tribute to one of France’s most renowned wine-producing areas.
This map focuses on the northern section of the Côtes du Rhône, often referred to as the "Septentrional" group, which includes some of the most prestigious vineyards in France. The region stretches along the Rhône River, from Vienne in the north to Valence in the south, and is known for producing exceptional red wines primarily from the Syrah grape, and white wines from Viognier, Marsanne, and Roussanne grapes.
Larmat’s detailed and carefully executed map highlights the specific vineyard areas, often indicating terroirs, local climatic conditions, and the different soil types that are so vital to the unique characteristics of the wines produced in this region. The map pinpoints the locations of famous wine villages such as Côte-Rôtie, Hermitage, Cornas, Saint-Joseph, and Crozes-Hermitage, all of which are world-renowned for their distinct and high-quality wines. The layout also features the various appellations, showing the boundaries that distinguish the individual wine-producing areas.
What makes Larmat’s map particularly valuable is its integration of both practical geographic detail and aesthetic presentation. As part of his "Atlas de la France Vinicole" series, this map not only serves as a tool for wine professionals and enthusiasts, but also as an artistic depiction of France's rich wine heritage. The use of color, shading, and elegant typography adds a decorative aspect to what could have been a purely functional document. The map is framed with clear labeling of the towns, vineyards, and natural features, making it both informative and visually appealing.
The Côtes du Rhône Septentrional area is historically important in viticulture, and this map captures the essence of the region during a time of turmoil in Europe. Even as the war raged on, the French tradition of winemaking endured, and this map is a reflection of the country’s enduring connection to its vineyards and their cultural significance.
Published in 1943, during the height of the Second World War, this map also holds significance as a symbol of France’s resilience and dedication to its agricultural and cultural identity, even in times of occupation and adversity. Larmat’s work in documenting the viticultural landscape of France during this period highlights the importance of wine as not just an economic product, but as a national symbol deeply intertwined with French history and culture.
Today, this map is a sought-after piece for collectors, wine enthusiasts, and historians. Its combination of artistry, cartographic precision, and historical context makes it a prized artifact that offers insight into the world of French winemaking, especially during one of the most challenging periods in modern history.
