The map of the Champagne Wine Region in France is a significant historical document that provides valuable insights into the Champagne wine region's geography, vineyards, and terroir during that era. Created by Louis Larmat in 1944, a renowned French cartographer, this map is a testament to his meticulous work in documenting and preserving the viticultural heritage of Champagne.

The map likely includes detailed information about the various Champagne appellations, vineyard locations, grape varieties, and possibly even historical data related to the production and classification of Champagne wines at the time. It serves as a valuable resource for wine enthusiasts, historians, and anyone interested in exploring the Champagne region's rich winemaking history.

Louis Larmat was a French cartographer and publisher active during the mid-20th century. He is best known for his Atlas de la France Vinicole, a six-volume atlas of the French wine regions that was published between 1941 and 1947.

Larmat was born in Paris in 1900. He studied cartography at the École Nationale des Sciences Géographiques and began his career as a cartographer for the French government. In 1924, he founded his own publishing company, Larmat Éditeur.

Larmat's Atlas de la France Vinicole was a groundbreaking work that helped to popularize French wine around the world. The atlas was the first comprehensive map of the French wine regions, and it included detailed information on the soils, climate, and wines of each region.

Larmat also published a number of other maps and atlases, including maps of France, Europe, and the world. He died in Paris in 1971.

Larmat's work has contributed significantly to the preservation and dissemination of knowledge about French wine regions and their unique characteristics. His maps continue to be used as valuable references for wine education, research, and appreciation.
