New Book – Jura Wine Ten Years On Released
My latest book, Jura Wine Ten Years On, was released for sale in early September following deliveries to Kickstarter supporters. The book is a companion volume to my award-winning Jura Wine book, published a decade ago in 2014. The latter still sells very well around the world being the only truly comprehensive book on the region.
The new book is small – 152 pages including about 25 photos and packed full of new information. It includes not only an update on all producers including small profiles of more than 50 new producers but also begins with in-depth chapters on the effects of climate change, speculation on Jura wines and much more. A visitor’s guide is also included with updated places to stay, eat, shop and drink.
Below I share with you links to the first couple of great reviews and also can offer you a time limited discount code to buy a copy, along with my previous books. Finally, see below for a list of Jura events in France, the Netherlands and UK at which I will be selling the books.
The main place to buy all my books is through the excellent wine specialist book publisher Académie du Vin Library, which co-published with me Jura Wine Ten Years On and is my main distributor. To support me, please buy from them, ideally at this link, which gives me a little extra money – delivery is worldwide, with EU taxes added on at checkout so you have no problem your end. You can use WINK10 to get 10% discount on any of my books or indeed any others on their list, valid until the end of November. But sorry, the bundles of 2 or more books together are not eligible for the discount as they are already discounted.

EARLY REVIEWS on Jura Wine Ten Years On
A long-term fan of the Jura, and supporter of mine too, was first to write a review on his excellent blog: David Crossley’s Wide World of Wine.
Having visited the Jura recently, Master of Wine Rose Murray Brown wrote a review of the book in The Scotsman and reproduced it on her blog Rose Uncut.
