Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy: The vineyards, the wine and the people has been the benchmark reference on Burgundy’s wines, winemakers and vineyards since its first publication in 2010.

Now, for a new decade, Jasper Morris and BB&R Press are releasing the Second Edition: 150 pages longer, completely revised and with expanded coverage.

Inside Burgundy is at once personal and encyclopaedic, offering detailed insider knowledge gained over decades allied to insights into the places and above all the people that make Burgundy so special. In the new edition, Jasper Morris describes more than 1,200 vineyards and 300 wine villages, and profiles and appraises some 700 domaines.

Every entry on vineyards, villages and producers has been revised and updated. Many more domaines have their vineyards listed, and nearly all vineyards have growers listed an invaluable, and unique, insight into who makes which wine from where.

Coverage of the regions where Burgundy remains affordable is notably enhanced: Chablis, the Côte Chalonnaise, the Mâconnais and the Hautes Côtes de Beaune and Nuits.

All the existing maps, which give unmatched insights into Burgundy’s complex network of vineyards and villages, are updated, improved and in several cases extended. New ones which include six maps showing plot by plot holdings in individual Gr and and Premier Cru vineyards have been added.

There is fresh and fascinating material on the growing season and the changing climate, and on the ways viticulture and winemaking are changing even in tradition loving Burgundy.

This new edition has 800 pages 150 pages longer than the first with 45 full colour maps that show individual vineyards.

Reviews of the book

FOR BURGUNDY LOVERS, THERE IS NOTHING COMPARABLE ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD OF PUBLISHING

“This seminal work is a highly impressive, extremely well-produced reference book and the most authoritative guide to this fragmented region. Morris lives in Burgundy – and is part of the wine community, experiencing its ups and downs.”

“His understanding and knowledge of the region is unsurpassed – this book really takes us ‘inside’ Burgundy, offering us his own personal and astute view of this celebrated region.”
Rose Murray Brown MW
André Simon Drink Award 2021 Assessor

“Morris does a good job of myth busting, tackling controversies and openly examining sensitive and somewhat contentious topics from climate change to environmentally damaging vineyard practices to the question of ripeness, both over and under-.”

“It will easily repay itself by way of steering the reader away from the underwhelming bottles with spuriously attractive names that can still be found in Burgundy.”
Raymond Blake
The World of Fine Wine

“The main meat and wealth of this book are the massive and extensive maps that lay out all the vineyards of Bourgogne in glorious detail. While just the maps would probably suffice for most, there are descriptions about the history and current owners which are exceptionally in depth.”

“As I read I feel that Jasper is acting as my trusted guide through the complexities of this wonderful region. I think he really understands Burgundy – he ‘gets’ it”
