Un Vin Presque Parfait: Guide des Vins 2011

Desjeux Créations produced the style guide* and page layout design of the book  « Un Vin Presque Parfait: Guide des Vins 2011 » for M6 Editions. Using text provided by the client, we handled the graphic design, picture editing and the typography layout of all pages,using the Un Dîner Presque Parfait TV programme’s style guide. (Click here to see
some pages of the e-book). 20,000 copies of this wine guide were distributed in September 2011 all over France.

Preface by Fabrice Sommier, President of the « Lyonnais Rhône-Alpes » association, named Best French Artisan in 2007 and Master Of Port in 2010, and Head Sommelier of the Georges Blanc restaurant in Vonnas, oversaw the selection: « Because it’s not always easy to find one’s way around wine aisles. Because heading off the beaten track is an adventure. Because it’s not easy to choose a good wine… Un Vin Presque Parfait is the guide you need. In this book, you’ll find a collection chosen by a jury of professionals and amateurs who tested over 1200 wines to select the cream of the crop. Following a blind tasting session, they then judged each bottle’s value for money, and, once the labels were revealed, they rated the bottles’ appearance. Whether you’re looking for a wine for a meal or a gift, or you dream of starting an affordable wine collection, this guide will help you in your oenological quest. There’s a whole host of different wines. Personally, I greatly enjoyed tasting all these nectars; I knew some of them already and discovered some new ones, but none of them left me indifferent. I hope you enjoy savouring these wines as much as I enjoyed tasting for you. *(except the cover, designed by Éric Doxat)
