The great wines captivate like lovers with their harmony and
complexity ? and especially their rarity. But what are the greatest
among them? In this compact volume, international wine expert
Michel Dovaz identifies the finest wines of our times and recounts
how they came about. From the legendary 1900 Chateau Margaux to the
blockbuster 2008 Pol Roger Champagne, the exceptional wines are
mainly French, but also include vintages form Germany, the United
States, Australia, Italy, and now South America. Dovaz provides an
informative overview from year to year: land, climate, soil, grape
varieties, harvest time and conditions, fermentation, and aging. In
the following, newly expanded section, Dovaz lists the best
vintages by year. Each entry features a detailed description of the
wine itself, as well as an enlightening discussion of the
vineyard?s history and the specific conditions that led to superior
vintages. They are paired with practical pricing information as
well as photographic spreads that will provide enthusiasts and
collectors with a fuller understanding of these favored wines
within the historical and social context of their times. AUTHOR:
Michel Dovaz is the author of more than one dozen books about wine,
including Bordeaux, a Legendary Wine, and Chateau Latour. Michael
Broadbent, author of the introduction, is founder and senior
consultant of Christie?s international wine department.
