Much more than a guide to Saint-Emilion, here is the right tool to explore the city and discover its mysteries. The best way is to take a few minutes to leaf through the book. If you choose to see everything, just follow the order of the cards. Their numbering makes up one of the possible circuits, a large one-day loop that starts from the car park at the top of Saint-Emilion and finally returns there. But many other paths are possible according to your desires or your available time. Each sheet is designed independently, letting you build your "à la carte" visit. The map at the start of the book allows you to find your way quickly and easily. And if you want to know more about the monuments or places presented in this guide, it is still possible. At the bottom of the pages, you will find a web link that completes the descriptions with a lot of additional information. Saint-Emilion is a city rich in heritage and historical events. But the undeniable reputation of its wine tends to put an opaque veil over its splendors. Written by people who lived and worked in Saint-Emilion, this guide wants to share with you the generous abundance of its most intimate treasures.

“This sharp critique of French winemakers, and Bordeaux’s Saint Emilion region in particular, caused quite a stir when it was published in France in 2014” (Publishers Weekly). Already provoking debate and garnering significant attention across France and within the wine world, Vino Business is a “truly eye-opening exposé” of the dark side of French wine by acclaimed investigative journalist Isabelle Saporta (Booklist). In recent decades, Bordeaux has come under the influence of large-scale international investors. Unafraid to name names, Saporta sheds a harsh light on how this influence has corrupted the region’s centuries-old traditions of winemaking excellence. She uncovers how the classification system was manipulated in 2012 to ensure that the wines of Saint-Émilion—Bordeaux’s most prestigious appellation—were certified premier grand cru classé A. Giving extra points to a chateaux for the size of its parking lot, the quality of the wine itself counts for only thirty percent of that coveted rank. In other chapters, Saporta investigates issues of wine labeling and pesticides, and draws comparisons to Champagne, Burgundy, and the rest of the wine world. “This fast-paced, provocative read” is a cri de coeur for the lost values of traditional winemaking (Dave DeSimone, Pittsburgh Tribune Review).

The wine industry appears to be an anomaly within the modern global economy. Thousands of small companies provide a vast variety of highly differentiated products and compete successfully with multinational corporations. Using case studies from Bordeaux, Napa Valley and Chianti Classico, this book argues that rather than being a vestige or a serendipitous phenomenon, this variety results from a sophisticated alternative organization of production. Integrating differentiation and branding into Ostrom's common pool resource theory, Jerry Patchell shows how winegrowers in a territory can use self-governance to protect and promote their common reputation while enhancing each producer's ability to differentiate their wines and build their own brand. Bordeaux, Napa, and Chianti Classico share several common challenges, but develop a set of strategies and tools appropriate to their markets and regulatory contexts.
