When things turn out right for Bordeaux, as they frequently do, its wines can be sublime. They inspire thousands of tributes, from Samuel Pepys’ succinct reviews to the most rhapsody of Michael Broadbent’s tasting notes—in short, over 300 years of wine writing. On Bordeaux is a collection of the best bits from our best-loved wine writers, critics and commentators, set around ten themes that make Bordeaux tick. And who better to introduce the collection than Jane Anson, who writes in her introduction: “multi-layered, clear-eyed, moving and often extremely funny [this] collection of stories… celebrates, illuminates and renews our understanding of Bordeaux.”
