Along the famous West Bank of the Gironde estuary in France's Bordeaux are some of the most prestigious wineries in the world: Chateau Margaux, Chateau Latour, Cos-d-Estournel, and others. The authors take us on a tour of the chateaux, the grand buildings that serve as the headquarters of the winery (and often the dwelling place of its owners). In addition to articles on each chateau, there is a glossary of terms, bibliography, and detailed information on each winery including address, telephone, and fax number.

5.0 out of 5 stars
A revealing, wonderful guide for the traveling connoisseur.,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Chateaux of the Medoc (Hardcover)
This wine-lover's guide to a beautiful wine-growing region of France, the Medoc, is a 'must' for any enthusiast of French countryside and wines. It provides a fine set of full-page photos by Peter Knaup as he travels from one chateaux to another, covering the wines and setting of over thirty estates. A revealing, wonderful guide for the traveling connoisseur.
