WCBS LIFESTYLE MINUTE- Friday, July 15, 2005 A must for the wine traveler. If you're planning to travel European wine routes this summer,you might be interested in the new Michelin Green Guide to the Wine Regions of France. This is a brand new title in the popular Michelin Green Guide series, and it's by far the best guide I've seen on wine touring in France. The book covers not just the best known regions -Bordeaux and Burgundy - but also less touristed regions such as Southwestern France and the Jura. There's even a chapter on Cognac. In typical Michelin fashion, the book is very detailed and meticulous in its reserach, with good maps and clear information on places to stay, regional shopping, nearby activities and, of course, restaurants.
