[La Bourgogne: Grands vins et tourisme. Carte guide routiere] La Bourgogne viticole et touristique
An attractive large-format folding wine and tourist map of Burgundy, published in Paris circa 1956. The principal map follows the great wine districts from Chablis and the Côte de Nuits through the Côte de Beaune, Côte Chalonnaise and Mâconnais to Beaujolais, naming numerous appellations and wine-producing villages. Pale-green shading delineates the principal viticultural areas, while a darker green route guides the traveller through the celebrated wine country. Red roads, blue rivers, black railway lines and finely drawn blue illustrations of monuments, abbeys, churches and châteaux combine practical touring information with an elegant promotional design. The integral reverse contains the title cover, introductory text, regional route maps and descriptions of Chablis, the Côte de Nuits, Côte de Beaune, Mâconnais, Beaujolais and other districts. A particularly appealing post-war celebration of Burgundy’s wine landscape, historic towns and architectural heritage.
