    Weinfuhrer of Bordeaux

    Hello Members

    I've just joined WAF as i'm researching the history of Weinfuhrers of France during WW2. I am preparing a presentation and i'd appreciate any information on Heinz Boermans who was the Weinfuhrer of Bordeaux.

    i am in the wine trade myself and have some knowledge of the French efforts to conceal wine from the Nazi's and all of the stories associated with Fine wine during the occupation are fascinating such as the switching of labels from great vintage wines onto poor quality bottles of plonk that wouldn't sell!! The Nazis often were fooled into believing the wine merchants. The Weinfuhrers were often in on the scams!

    Any contributions to help my research would be gratefully accepted

    thanks in advance
    regards
    Dave

    Hello Dave - and Welcome!

    Can't say I know much about it - but the topic sounds very intriguing!

    Would like to see more of your research some day . . .

      You might have already read the book "Wine & War" but if not, it's a good read.
