Authoritative Guide to Pinot Noir, by John Haeger

This is the definitive work on Pinot Noir in North America. John Winthrop Haeger, known for his perceptive wine writing for more than fifteen years, gives contextual and comparative information about Pinot Noir in Burgundy and then tells the story of wine producers' early failures, frustrations, and breakthroughs in North America.
He discusses plant genetics and clones, identifies the essential conditions for really good pinot, tells where the best wines are grown and made, and analyzes the factors that determine wine styles and signatures. In the second part of the book, he presents detailed producer profiles with accessibly written tasting notes on recent and mature vintages. A final section covers glassware, vintages, wine and food pairings, and other matters of interest to consumers. Maps prepared especially for this book cover all the major Pinot-producing regions in North America.
