It wasn’t until the late 1950s that red wines became the foremost category in Bordeaux. While reds still dominate, since the 1990s there has been a revival of interest in the region’s whites. In The White Wines of Bordeaux, Mary Gorman-McAdams explores in depth all of the non-red wines of Bordeaux, examining the history and evolution of these less well-known wine styles. The permitted varieties are covered in depth and each appellation is explained in terms of its terroir, styles and significant wines. Key producers, and their vine growing and winemaking approaches, are profiled for each appellation. The challenges and catalysts for change, from shifts in wine buyer demographics to environmental issues, are analysed. The book concludes with a chapter on vintage white Bordeaux.
