Bourgogne

The whole region in 16 pages.

The whole region in one sitting. Why Burgundy asks where, not what. The four step pyramid from regional wine to grand cru, the label decoder, and the two grapes that do almost all the work. Along the way: the monks who mapped the slopes, the duke who banned Gamay, and how to read a hillside.
