4Burgundy & its Wines  Jan 30, 2007
By John R. Kolb "JK"
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.

5Great overview of Burgundy wines  Oct 30, 2008
By J. Hartsfield
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.

3Pretty but not very useful  May 25, 2007
By B. Lewis
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.

5Great presentation.  Jan 26, 2007
By Betsy Pimentel
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).
