An introduction explains how the wine is made and how the consumer begins to learn about the best wines. Part One describes the famous villages of the Cote d'Or, introduces every major grower and his wines, and evaluates each grand and premier cru, distinguishing between their tastes and recommending the best sources in each climate in a way that has never been done before. Part Two profiles the top sixty domaines in depth, with notes on a vertical tasting of one of their wines. Part Three consists of vintage assessments on the best red and white years since the war, and includes thousands of detailed tasting notes.
