4.0 out of 5 stars Burgundy & its Wines
The book has wonderful photography, with a nice history of the region. A few major vineyards are listed, but don't expect it to be a list of key Burgundian hot spots! More the asthetic and artistic history of the area and how wine got started and grew.

3.0 out of 5 stars Pretty but not very useful
This book is sort of all fluff; the pictures are pretty, but it's not really very informative. I'd skip it and buy a Michelin guide unless you want a picture book for your coffee table.

Provided a good introduction and overview to the various areas of Burgundy. It included a history of winemaking in the regions as well as specifics on the characteristics of the wines from each region.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great presentation., January 26, 2007
This review is from: Burgundy and Its Wines (Hardcover)
Great portrait of Bordeaux, it's wines and communes, written in a non-pretensious style. Since I haven't been lucky enough to travel to the Bordeaux, Robert Joseph descriptions has help me envision the region, even without the need of the photos (althoug they've also helped).
