JORDAN & JORDAN
There are plenty of recent vintage charts around, in journals, books, and on the net. But what about previous centuries? Monastic records have preserved this remarkable information for us, although there are of course some gaps. The notes illustrate the relation between quality and quantity that holds for wine. The greatest vintages are set in bold face. We update the chronic regularly and are grateful for any new information that we get from our readers. Last update : 29.04.97
