A long-awaited historical account of the work of Resistance hero Jean Bringer, one of many Carcassonnais(e) whose efforts and sacrifices make us proud. 🇫🇷

✋Nouveau 🇫🇷
❗️Quatre-vingts ans sont passés ! Jean Bringer, le chef de la Résistance de l'Aude assassiné à Baudrigue (Roullens) par les n***s n'avait toujours fait l'objet d'une étude historique. Aucun hommage, ni célébration. Tout juste un nom de rue attribué après la Libération, en remplacement de celle de la préfecture. Que savait-on de lui ? Rien. On ne sembla d'ailleurs pas s'intéresser à ce qu'il fut. Il fallait donc à l'occasion de ce 80e anniversaire offrir à ce héros, grand patriote, non seulement une biographie mais plus encore. Une enquête sur les circonstances de son arrestation, après avoir signé l'an dernier un ouvrage sur les martyrs de Baudrigue.
⚠️Ce livre est entièrement réalisé et financé par l'auteur.

Evolving with our tastes and spending decisions, as well as with the climate, is the way forward in French wines. We have known this a long, long time in the Languedoc!

The Refošk variety has natural acidity that could help Bordeaux winemakers adapt to climate change, according to wine consultant Nicolas Vivas.
