What Price Bordeaux? presents a unique overview of the forces making Bordeaux wine what it is today. The book considers terroir, how events ranging from the phylloxera plague to global warming have changed the fundamental nature of Bordeaux, the mysteries of the en primeur system, the rising influence of oenologues and critics, the changing nature of the wine itself, and the rise and fall of various chateaux.
