Gallico Vinum
France has given the world many cultural treasures, but few are as enduring—or as revealing—as its wines. From the limestone slopes of Burgundy to the gravel terraces of Bordeaux, these landscapes are not merely wine regions; they are living archives of history, culture, and craftsmanship, shaped over centuries and expressed one vintage at a time.
Gallico Vinum is an independent wine journal founded and curated by Wilma Baltus, devoted to the in-depth study and interpretation of fine French wine. With a clear focus on provenance, tradition, and long-term value, the platform is written for collectors, professionals, and serious wine lovers who seek understanding rather than opinion.
Wilma Baltus approaches French wine as both a cultural artefact and an evolving narrative. Her work combines detailed domaine and château profiles, rigorous vintage analysis, and historical research, placing each wine within its broader economic, cultural, and sensory context. The aim is not simply to describe how a wine is made, but to explain why it matters—then and now.
