Grands Vins: The Finest Châteaux of Bordeaux and Their Wines

Rating:
Summary: For SERIOUS collectors of Bordeaux
Review: This thorough if narrowly focused study by a major British wine critic covers the ground with thoroughness and dedicated skill. Not for beginners, it's a requirement if you're getting seriously into collecting Bordeaux

Rating:
Summary: Top quality reference
Review: This top quality reference, now getting a bit dated, provides one of the most thorough and detailed examinations of the Bordeaux region ever written. Though not as exciting to read as Markham's "1855" it is much more informative than Parker's "Bordeaux." Any serious collection of wine histories should include this book. I am hopeful that a newer edition will be arriving soon.
