- Bordeaux wine
Bordeaux wine is on a level of its own, with a worldwide reputation: Haut-Brion, Saint-Émilion, Cheval Blanc, Yquem, Pétrus and Lafite are just some of the prestigious names from the area. It isn’t for nothing that Bordeaux has the highest number of appellations AOC in France! All visitors are impressed by the amount of castles and vineyards running at the rhythm of small motorway...
Among Bordeaux wines, there are more red wines than white wines. Rosé wines represent a minority.
Red Wines from Bordeaux
Red wines from the region are based on a blend of 3 main grape varieties: the famous Cabernet-Sauvignon is essential to the wines of Médoc. Its pronounced tannins and longevity is the key of the elegance that will keep the wine succesful over the years. The Merlot grape varieties, also famous, play a decisive role in the wines of Médoc and of Graves; its suppleness and its aromatic intensity make it a prime grape variety for the wines of Pomerol and Saint-Émilion. Cabernet-Franc is more used for Saint-Émilion wine and gives it all the complexity and the spice and herbaceous aromas it’s known for.
White Bordeaux Wines
Bordeaux’s white wines also come from mainly 3 grape varieties. Whether it is a dry white wine from Graves or a Sauternes, the delicacy of Muscadelle grape is appreciated in blends for its fresh and floral notes. Sauvignon Blanc, very mineral, is used with Sémillon grape variety to make not only the dry white wines (Graves, Pessac-Léognan, Bordeaux, ...) but also fortified sweet wines. The most famous is Château d'Yquem, the only Sauternes to be classified as Premier Cru Supérieur, in 1855.
