Bordeaux Wine

(195 products)
Bordeaux is the engine room of France’s wine production. The Gironde department is France’s largest viticultural region with a total vineyard area of over 120,000 hectares and many of the world’s most famous and sought after wines make the region their home. Once very conservative, it is now a region full of diversity and experimentation, though the famous classification of 1855 still provides the major impetus for sales within the region. EXcellent value is to be found outside the classified growths within the region's satellite appellations and the sweet wines of Barsac and Sauternes remain the benchmark for sweet wines across the world

Frequently Asked Questions

Where is Bordeaux?
Bordeaux is a prestigious wine-producing region situated in the southwest of France, near the Atlantic coast. Encompassed by the Gironde estuary to the west and traversed by the rivers Dordogne and Garonne, this sprawling region's geography plays a pivotal role in its winemaking legacy. Bordeaux's temperate maritime climate, influenced by the Atlantic Ocean, combined with its diverse range of soil types, from gravelly terrains in the Médoc to clay-rich grounds in Saint-Émilion, makes it a viticultural paradise. Rich in history, Bordeaux has been a bustling wine trade hub since Roman times and remains a magnet for wine lovers and professionals from all corners of the globe.

Are wines from Bordeaux good and affordable?
Bordeaux is renowned globally for producing some of the world's most illustrious wines, known for their depth, complexity, and aging potential. While the region is home to iconic estates producing "Grand Cru Classé" wines, which can command astronomical prices, Bordeaux's vastness also means it offers a plethora of wines at more accessible price points. From the robust reds of Côtes de Bordeaux to the delightful whites from Entre-Deux-Mers, there's a Bordeaux wine for every budget. This ensures that while collectors might seek out rare vintages for their cellars, everyday wine enthusiasts can also savor the Bordeaux experience without breaking the bank.

What makes Bordeaux a special wine region?
Bordeaux's distinction lies in its perfect storm of geographical, geological, and climatic factors, paired with centuries of winemaking expertise. Its unique terroir, characterized by riverbank soils rich in gravel, limestone, and clay, offers optimal conditions for grape varieties like Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Sauvignon Blanc. Additionally, the region's classification system, established in 1855, set a precedent in the wine world, designating châteaux based on their quality. This tradition of excellence, coupled with innovative techniques introduced by passionate vintners across generations, makes Bordeaux a beacon of both tradition and evolution in the world of wine.

What type of wine is Bordeaux most known for?
Bordeaux is best recognized for its red blends, primarily made from Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, complemented by grapes like Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, and Malbec. These reds, particularly from sub-regions like Pauillac, Margaux, and Saint-Émilion, are celebrated for their rich flavors, tannic structure, and aging potential. However, Bordeaux is also revered for its white wines, primarily crafted from Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon, and Muscadelle. Not to be overlooked, areas like Sauternes and Barsac are globally acclaimed for their luscious, botrytized sweet wines.

What are the best wines from Bordeaux?
Determining the "best" wines from Bordeaux can be subjective, given the region's vastness and diversity. However, wines from the 1855 Classification, including First Growth estates like Château Margaux, Château Latour, and Château Haut-Brion, consistently receive global accolades. In the right bank, properties like Château Cheval Blanc and Château Pétrus have achieved legendary status. For white wines, Château Haut-Brion's white blend and the sweet wines of Château d'Yquem stand out as paragons of excellence. Yet, it's essential to remember that beyond these iconic names, Bordeaux offers a treasure trove of wines, each with its unique story and expression of this storied region.
