The « Bible » of Burgundy – The Wines of Burgundy
This book offers to the vast public a precise, practical and complete study of the vineyards and wines of one of the most famous French viticultural regions. The life and culture of the wine, vinification, ageing of wine, the characteristics of the appellations of origin, commercial practices, the art of drinking, the selection of wine, vinous festivities; in fact all that concerns the wines produced in Burgundy, has been carefully described by its authors who have thus composed a living biography of the wines of Burgundy from their birth to their consumption. This fascinating work is the indispensable guide not only for lovers of Burgundy but also for professionals: viticulturists, wine-brokers, commercial agents, wine waiters, etc. The first edition of this book was, in 1952, awarded the Literary Prize of the Confrérie des Chevaliers du Tastevin. This eleventh edition has been reviewed, corrected and brought up to date by Sylvain Pitiot and Jean-Charles Servant and beautifully translated from French by Roger Jones.

Le Montrachet, by Keiko Kato, Maika Masuko & Jean-Claude Wallerand:
This is the definitive work on this piece of land. This beautiful book looks at the 21 owner/producers of Le Montrachet. It looks at the people in detail but also at their wine-making techniques and differences.
The fifteen or so people who make up the group of owners of the world’s most renowned white wine are happy.
Immortalised by the camera’s lens – what feelings inhabit them?
Intense satisfaction, serenity, worry, pride, tenderness? They are almost all surprised by the wine that they are tasting.
Their eyes light up just like those of a child in front of a Christmas tree and they get lost in a faraway horizon as if asking the sky questions in order to reassure themselves that nothing comparable to this exists elsewhere.
They all delight in thinking about smelling and savoring this unique cru that they love like a very dear person to whom they have given the best of themselves.
These unique portraits convey the extreme pleasure and the genuine love that they have for wine better than any speech ever could.
Le Montrachet Preface by George Pertuiset, President of the French Sommeliers Union
