Presentation :

It is a translation of works describing and classifying the vineyards of the Côte d'Or before the establishment of the current system of controlled designation of origin in 1936, and an analysis of their comparison with the modern system. For centuries, a number of authors, ranging from the enlightened amateur to the experienced professional, have shared their thoughts.

The Original Grands Crus of Burgundy offer a roadmap to the discovery of forgotten gems, hidden in plain sight. An essential read for all lovers of Burgundy.
