” For centuries a bastion of tradition & the jewel in the crown of French viticulture, Bordeaux has in recent years become dogged by controversy, particularly regarding the 2012 classification of the wines of St.-Emilion, the most prestigious appellation of Bordeaux`s right bank. St.-Emilion is an area increasingly dominated by big international investors, especially from China, who are keen to speculate on the area`s wines & l&, some of whose value has increased tenfold in the last decade alone. In the controversial 2012 classification, certain chateaux were promoted to a more prestigious class because of insider deals that altered the scoring system for the classification of wines into premier crus & grand crus. This system now takes into account the facilities of each chateau`s tasting room, the size of its warehouse, & even the extent of its parking lot. The quality of the wine counts for just 30% of the total score for the wines of the top ranking, those deemed premier grand cru classe A. In Vino Business, Saporta shows how back-room deals with wine distributors, multinational investors like the luxury company LVMH, & even wine critics, have fundamentally changed this ancient business. Saporta also investigates issues of wine labelling & the use of pesticides, & draws comparisons to Champagne, Burgundy & the rest of the wine world. Based on two years of research & reporting, Vino Business draws back the curtain on the secret world of Bordeaux, a land ever more in thrall to the grapes of wealth.” ...
