"The Complete Bordeaux Vintage Guide: 150 Years from 1870 to 2020," authored by Neal Martin, is a comprehensive book that breaks new ground in wine publishing. It's the first volume to cover 150 years of vintages in-depth, offering a unique cultural context alongside traditional wine notes. For each year, the book provides not only information about the growing seasons and harvests but also includes a significant event, a song or musical composition, and a film that captures the spirit of the time. The book provides a witty and personal take on the wine handbook, with cultural references ranging from Sherlock Holmes to Beyoncé.
