Book excerpt: An inevitable guide, an unique concept Between pleasure and emotion After a year 2022 during which all the alerts related to global warming, the collapse of biodiversity, the depletion of resources and various crises, between unprecedented fires and drought, armed conflicts at the gates of Europe and uncontrolled migrations, exceeding the most pessimistic scenarios used by the IPCC since 1990, the Champagne area still manages to preserve the quality of its wines and its economic stability. Let's hope that the change to a low-carbon and truly environmentally friendly champagne sector will be fast enough to meet the imminent challenges... Despite this worrying context, I am happy to present the Guide VERON des Champagnes 2024. For this fourteenth edition, 65 cuvées of champagne have been selected, produced by wine growers as well as cooperative cellars and Champagne houses. This year of discoveries and tastings has again been the occasion for new surprises, sources of constantly renewed pleasure, which have allowed me to measure the dynamism and creativity of the champagne producers. The Guide VERON des Champagnes remains faithful to its concept, the one that makes it stand out, which consists in refusing to classify and mark the selected champagnes, in order not to fall into vulgarity. How to assign a grade to a pleasure or an emotion? Through this book, I offer you a real initiatory journey, to meet the wine growers and cellar masters who made it possible to write this Guide VERON des Champagnes 2024. This book published in French and English was born out of my passion for champagne tasting, my long experience enriched by innumerable exchanges with the champenois wine growers and my thirst for discovery… Michel VERON Œnologist and teacher at Lycée viticole de la Champagne since 1991 www.guide-veron-champagne.blogspot.com Photos credits: Brigitte VERON
