Book excerpt: The Bordeaux commune of Pauillac is the most prestigious wine commune in the world, home to some of the most famous names in fine wine, such as Lafite, Mouton-Rothschild and Latour. In Pauillac, Stephen Brook examines the factors that make the commune and its wines so desirable. The land - the way it lies and the soils that comprise it - is assessed, as is the intriguing history of the area which set the scene for the introduction of the 1855 Classification. Pauillac's viticulture and winemaking are also explained and practical advice is given on visiting the area. The book then provides in-depth profiles of the Pauillac estates, arranged according to their position in the 1855 Classification. Each profile analyzes the development of the estate and its wines, the aims, attitudes and practices of the owners and a qualitative assessment is given on their current results. Pauillac concludes with an extensive section of tasting and vintage notes for each estate. Throughout the book, specially commissioned photography by Michael Busselle captures the essence of the place and its people.

Download or read book Bordeaux written by Robert M. Parker and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2013-02-05 with total page 1433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With this fourth edition of the classic that launched his career, Parker strives to maintain his unprecedented independence, objectivity, clarity, and enthusiasm in reporting on the vintages of Bordeaux. Parker has not only added tastings for the vintages in the intervening years since the last edition, but he has also retasted and reevaluated a majority of the earlier vintages. His accessible and direct style welcomes both the seasoned wine collector and the eager beginner to the pleasures of fine wine and France's most illustrious chateau. Organized by appellation, Bordeaux moves alphabetically from one producer to the next, providing essential information and an overview of the property and its owners. Parker then lists each vintage, and includes numerical ratings and detailed tasting notes for most of that chateau's wines. At the end of each tasting note, Parker estimates the "anticipated maturity"—the range of time when the wine should peak in flavor and balance—and each entry concludes with a summary of the chateau's earlier vintages. Hailed by The New York Times as “the critic who matters most,” Robert Parker's Bordeaux is the most complete consumer's guide to the wines of Bordeaux ever written.
