Continuing north up the Gironde db's Bordeaux correspondent Colin Hay reaches Pauillac in his appellation-by-appellation guide to Bordeaux 2023. Here he finds an impressively homogeneous collection of wines, despite the challenging vintage, listing his stand out wines of the appellation.
An investigation like no other, Eastbound Westbound lets the viewer understand how this Franco-American friendship around Bordeaux wines had its starting point in the 18th century around the greatest connoisseur of fine wines and lover of Bordeaux, the American Thomas Jefferson, US Ambassador to Paris and third President of the United States.
To better demonstrate Thomas Jefferson's legacy, this intimate relationship between the two wine-growing continents is illustrated through interlinked portraits of wine families, from many and varied backgrounds but all sharing a real passion for wine. Leading players in their field, they produce some of the best wines in the world.
These endearing and outstanding women and men are introduced in a more contemporary section by the American wine merchant and former wine journalist Jeffrey Davies, an expert on the terroirs and wine-making fabric in Bordeaux and on the other side of the Atlantic.
