I was given this book recently and it’s filled with amazing diagrams and maps for basically every French classified vineyard. Very scientific and detailed.

Terroir: The Role of Geology, Climate, and Culture in the Making of French Wines (Wine Wheels) https://www.amazon.com/dp/1891267221/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_GVb1CbZX01B8M

Edit: here are some pics of the diagrams, so freaking cool.

Here are a few books which, I think, can give you a good idea of what "traditional" French cuisine is:

Daniel Galmiche's French Brasserie Cookbook

Françoise Bernard's Everyday French Home Cooking (Françoise Bernard's books were an absolute staple in French traditional home cooking something like 30 years ago)

Joel Robuchon & Lionel Bienassis's French Regional Food : a book not only about cooking, but also about French regional specialties

La Mère Brazier, The Mother of Modern French Cooking: a total must-have. Eugénie Brazier is one of the pillars of what is now known as French Modern Cuisine. Staples after staples after staples of traditional French cuisine, from the most modest pasta bake to the most delicate and sophisticated recipes. If you must buy only one cookbook, have a go at this one.

Hope this helps. :)

i use the recipe from the book "home winemakers companion" http://www.amazon.com/The-Home-Winemakers-Companion-Great-Tasting/dp/1580172091 and i'm away from that book right now so can't get you the exact recipe.

most recipes are pretty similar though. you can't go wrong with eckraus recipes, here's one for raspberry which looks really similar to mine: http://www.eckraus.com/winerecipes/raspberrywine.pdf

when using real fruit, i always freeze it first (it breaks down the fruit better) then i thaw it out completely a couple of days in the fridge before starting this recipe. it doesn't hurt to throw a couple more lbs of fruit in this recipe either, better taste
