Walking while reading about Burgundy wine
Read, see, and walk through Burgundy wine
Description
Book Introduction
A special wine book to complete your wine journey.

It is different from books that cover the basics of wine.
This book focuses solely on Burgundy, the most complex and difficult to access region within France, the home of wine.
We cover the famous Chablis and Côte d'Or, as well as the Côte Chalonnaise and Mâconnais, which have not been covered in wine books, and all the villages within them.
Moreover, for the first time in a domestically published wine book, you can enjoy vivid images of Burgundy's famous vineyards, photographed by the authors themselves, through QR videos.
This is what makes this book special in many ways.

By the way, the authors' main occupation is not wine.
However, their love and interest in wine is very special.
I tried to maintain an objective and professional perspective throughout writing the book.
It is said that the final destination of any wine journey is Burgundy.
This book will serve as a faithful guide on that final journey.

Publisher's Review
If you know Burgundy, you will see the wine.

This book is the result of the most systematic and three-dimensional explanation of Burgundy wine, the final gateway that wine lovers must encounter.

As a wine education book, it not only covers the basics such as history, geography, climate, and grape varieties, but also provides an in-depth explanation of the concepts of 'terroir' and 'climat' that define Burgundy's identity, and also introduces the French wine regulation system and AOC classification in detail.
Furthermore, it covers all the village-level AOCs of the five major regions of Burgundy, from Chablis to Mâconnais, without exception, and each chapter includes mini-topics that interestingly illustrate cases that occur in actual wine production sites, making it even more enjoyable to read.

What's most special about this book is that readers can see and understand the local vineyards and villages with their own eyes through QR videos.
The videos, shot by the authors themselves on location in Burgundy, go beyond simple audiovisual aids and expand the book's narrative into a immersive experience.
This is the first attempt in Korea to publish a specialized book on wine.

Additionally, the book's end contains a wealth of information, including a guide to pairing Burgundy wines, matching them with Korean food, storage and tasting methods, and information on wine festivals and museums, helping readers not only "study" wine but also "enjoy and experience" it.

This book will serve as a solid compass for readers who have struggled with Burgundy, and as a broad map for those who love Burgundy.
This one book covers the entire landscape of Burgundy wine.
