Synopsis
In this new updated edition of his classic work, The Winemasters, Nicholas Faith charts the fascinating history of the wines of Bordeaux. It is the story of a group of merchant families who for two centuries controlled the sales of the finest clarets and Sauternes--and how the owners of the region's greatest estates and chateaux freed themselves from the merchants' grip. Above all, it is a chronicle teeming with intriguing characters--from the Rothschilds to the dozens of eccentric chateau owners. Faith also recounts how Bordeaux reeled after two members of the proudest merchant families were convicted of fraud after the biggest boom-and-bust in the annals of the Bordeaux wine market. Now, Nicholas Faith brings us up date as he revisits the world's most exciting and mysterious wine market. Nicholas Faith is the author of The Story of Champagne, Chateau Margaux, Classic Brandy, and Cognac, the definitive study of the subject.
