Inside Bordeaux and Inside Burgundy books now wholly owned by their authors

Jane Anson, October 2022

Berry Bros. & Rudd is passing all rights for the books Inside Bordeaux and Inside Burgundy to its authors Jane Anson and Jasper Morris MW. Publishing partners Segrave Foulkes will continue to work with both authors.

Both Inside Bordeaux and Inside Burgundy were published, and distributed worldwide, in an innovative partnership with BB&R Press, allowing focused distribution that would not have been possible through traditional publishing channels. In the 12 years since the first edition of Inside Burgundy, and the two years since Inside Bordeaux, both books have proved hugely successful – commercially and in critical terms – and today are the acknowledged ‘bibles’ for their respective regions.

“It has been a privilege to work with Jane, Jasper and Segrave Foulkes on these seminal wine books and Berry Bros. & Rudd is proud that it has been able to play an important role in their creation.” says Mark Pardoe, MW of BB&R. “Both authors plan to continue working with our unique network of distribution partners worldwide – which has proved such a happy and effective collaboration”.

Jane Anson says, “I am so grateful to all at BB&R for believing in this book, and am honoured to now be taking over full ownership and distribution. This will allow a more seamless exchange of content between my website janeanson.com and book Inside Bordeaux, to the benefit of my subscribers and distribution partners, and ensure that new editions and translated versions can be brought to the market quickly and simply”.

Jasper Morris says, “I shall be forever grateful for Simon Berry’s enthusiastic adoption of my book at the outset. We have enjoyed a fantastic run with BB&R Press for the First & Second Editions and I thank them for all their support to date. JMIB has the team in place to rise to challenge of continuing distribution of the third print run of the Second Edition, along with any future editions or subsequent works.”

Notes to editors:
This move will also respond to the current world situation re. freight and shipping, streamlining the supply chain and better serving our distribution partners and winelovers.
Editorial management, reprints and future editions will continue to be handled on behalf of the authors by Segrave Foulkes Publishers, working with their current team – Lizzie Ballantyne of Lizzie B Design (art director) and Marina Asenjo of Booklabs
(production management).
