A Special Issue on Chocolate

According to Gault&Millau’s editor-in-chief, Philippe Toinard, the must-read article in this special chocolate feature is the spotlight on eleven ethical, committed, and endearing chocolatiers (p. 89): “They’re breaking new ground. For most of them, this is a career change into the world of chocolate. There’s something more eco-conscious about their way of thinking. It marks a shift toward a new generation of chocolatiers we haven’t seen before—they have a different vision of the world of chocolate.”

Art on a Plate

In this fifteenth issue, Gault&Millau featured an interview with Anne-Sophie Pic. It was an opportunity for the chef to share her passion for art. “I was struck by her delicacy and her artistry, which she expresses through her choice of colors and the harmony of forms, ” explains the editor-in-chief.

In the Corbières, the winemakers’ struggle in the wake of the fire

Also featured in this new issue: the resilience of winemakers in the Corbières after the devastating fire (p. 133). “With this article, we wanted to try to understand how winemakers are recovering after such an event. We ask ourselves: at what point do they decide to give up? But the fact is, they haven’t given up. Of the three winemakers we interviewed, it was a glimmer of hope—like a leaf that didn’t burn—that led them to decide not to give up.”
