Synopsis
Recounting the history and ambience of a region where wine has been produced for more than a thousand years, Wine Guild award-winner Robert Joseph takes the reader on a personal tour of the appellations of Bordeaux. Discover the many varied regions—from Margaux to St. Émilion, the Médoc to Sauternes and Graves. Savor their wines, and learn how the climate, soil, and people make them what they are. Visit the châteaux, villages, and vineyards of Bordeaux, and meet the men and women who, every year, turn baskets of grapes into bottles of wine that are among the most sought after in the world. Along the way, learn about the individuals—from kings to hermits—who have shaped the history of the region. Complete with Robert Joseph’s personal directory to Bordeaux’s most interesting wines, this is a rich and rewarding book for all who are drawn to the glories of France’s most historic wine-producing region.

Review
With sumptuous photographs and a fascinating label reference guide at the back, this is an appealing guide that one almost wants to open beneath one's nose and 'swill' around as if it were the very wine about which it enthuses. Part travel book, part eulogy to one of the world's most famous wines and wine-growing regions, it provides both an introduction for the new wine enthusiast, and a welcome addition to the library of any seasoned wine lover. The author is the founder of Wine Magazine and has written some 20 books on the subject, including the Good Wine Guide.
