The wines of Chablis builds on Rosemary George’s pioneering books on the region, The wines of Chablis and the Yonne and The wines of Chablis and the Grand Auxerrois, and brings the story of Chablis completely up to date. It begins with the history of the region, from St. Martin de Tours in the fourth century to the twenty-first century, and goes on to consider the vineyards, the Crus, how the grapes are grown in this the most northerly wine growing region of Burgundy, and how wine is made in Chablis in the twenty-first century. The bulk of The wines of Chablis profiles the producers. This Who’s Who of Chablis winemakers and estates is an invaluable, up-to-the-minute resource for all lovers of this steely, dry white wine. George goes on to profile the most important wine growers of the surrounding areas, the Grand Auxerrois, including the Côtes d’Auxerre, Irancy, Coulanges-la-Vineuse, St. Bris le Vineux, Chitry-le-Fort, Joigny, Tonnerre, Epineuil and Vézelay. Appendices cover one hundred years (and more) of vintages, as well as vineyard areas and bans de vendange dates. Rosemary George’s The wines of Chablis is an essential guide to the different wines of this part of France for all wine professionals and enthusiastic amateurs.
