Any opinions of the new Oz Clarke Bordeaux book?

An enjoyable read, and it's interesting that he seems to "appreciate" both the bigger, more fruit-forward style (see Rolland) and some of the traditional style. He seems to beleive rather strongly that Bordeaux went through a bad patch in the 1970s, 80s, and especially early 90s.

Anyone perused this book?
