‘Oz has returned to his first love, Bordeaux, embraced it with a giant hug and made it his own. Written in a breezy style, the book manages to discuss terroir and winemaking in a comprehensible yet authoritative way. Oz knows whereof he speaks. Plenty of attention is given to the prestigious wines of Bordeaux, but he rightly singles out the forgotten regions that have raised their game and now make delicious and affordable wines. Lavishly illustrated, even if often with photos of our hero, and well designed, there is no better introduction to the world’s most dazzling wine region.’ Stephen Brook, Decanter magazine

‘This is an absolute treasure-trove for wine buffs, and a must for any trip to Bordeaux.’  The Good Book Guide

‘One of the most enjoyable wine books so far this year has been Oz Clarke’s Bordeaux’ Hull Daily Mail
