The maps from which the 2024 enlarged, stand-alone maps are derived were created for publication in Inside Bordeaux by Jane Anson, 2020. Copyright © Berry Bros & Rudd Press 2020, Copyright © EJA Publishing 2022. Base material for the maps is derived from original research for The Bordeaux Atlas (Copyright © Segrave Foulkes 1997). Maps showing soils and other terroir information have been drawn under the supervision of Cornelis van Leeuwen, Professor of viticulture at Bordeaux Sciences Agro and Bordeaux University’s Institut des Sciences de la Vigne et du Vin (ISVV).
