Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
Bordeaux enthusiasts call the 1980s the decade of the century because of the abundance of great vintages. This completely revised edition of Parker's Bordeaux ( LJ 1/86) includes Parker's personal tasting notes for hundreds of additional wines and revised notes for many of the wines described in the first edition. Because wine, especially Bordeaux, changes as it matures, the new notes are a welcome aid to connoisseurs. Capsule summaries of vintages from 1945 to 1990 are provided but most of the book is filled with tasting notes and rankings of each producer's best vintages. Information on buying wine futures and visiting Bordeaux is also included. This is an important book for serious wine collections.

This review is from: Bordeaux: A Consumer's Guide to the World's Finest Wines (Hardcover)
Perfect for grand cru classé wines but a bit thin on the cru bourgeois. I understand that a revised edition is on the way...

Useful buying guide for Bordeaux,
By A Customer
This review is from: Bordeaux: A Consumer's Guide to the World's Finest Wines (Hardcover)
Love Parker or bash Parker, just about every American wine lover pays attention to what he says. We have to ... his ratings make the market move as the wines he rates fly off the shelves. This revised version of his Bordeaux offers concise summaries of the major chateaux and his ratings of the wines they produce
