A personal selection of writers on Burgundy

The Vine, by Clive Coates, has a wide coverage, but is very strong in Burgundy. Sadly it is no longer published, but back issues are available. His new book "The Wines Of Burgundy" has just been published, and occasional reviews are published on his website at at clive-coates.com

Burghound, by Allen Meadows, is a quarterly publication dedicated to the wines of Burgundy. The depth of coverage is, in my opinion, unmatched. Read more at burghound.com

View From The Cellar, by John Gilman, is a bimonthly publication covering a broad spread of wines. It is particularly strong in reviews of older vintages and of Burgundy. For subscription information write to viewcellar@yahoo.com and mention HPB to get a free sample copy.

International Wine Cellar, by Stephen Tanzer is also a bimonthly publication, with full range coverage and a good “en primeur” coverage of Bugundy. Read more at wineaccess.com/expert/tanzer

Burgundy Report, by Bill Nanson, is an on-line “Burgundy magazine”, with in depth features on the vineyards and producers, a good range of tasting notes and an active (and interesting) blog. Read more at burgundy-report.com
