Bordeaux

The Bordeaux region

The Bordeaux wine region, located in southwest France, is one of the most famous in the world

Located in Gironde, it is undoubtedly one of the most prestigious in the world. Renowned for its blended red wines made from Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc, it counts among its most famous AOCs appellations such as Margaux, Pauillac, and Saint-Émilion. In this vast region, certain producers stand out for the excellence of their work.
A must-see is Château Margaux, one of the first five grands crus classified in 1855. Its wines, and in particular Château Margaux 2015, embody elegance and finesse, with unrivaled aromatic complexity. In the Pomerol appellation, Château Pétrus is another legend, producing rare and precious wines, dominated by Merlot, of impressive richness and intensity. Finally, for a great discovery at a more accessible price, Château Léoville Barton in Saint-Julien produces remarkable wines, combining structure and longevity, perfect for lovers of classic Bordeaux.

Nestled in the Médoc, Château Margaux - A reference!

We love it for its unique qualities that result from the genius of its terroir and the passionate work of successive generations. This remarkable wine is distinguished by a combination of rare characteristics: finesse, elegance, complexity, density, intensity, length and freshness. Although its tannic concentration is often exceptional, it is rare to feel astringency. A very French diamond.
