On the road for a getaway through Bordeaux’s vineyards
Bordeaux is a mosaic of six remarkable winegrowing landscapes, each with its own unmistakable personality. Lace up your shoes — we’re taking you on a journey.
Bordeaux, Bordeaux Supérieur and Crémant
All the colours of our nature
Let’s ease into the journey with Bordeaux, Bordeaux Supérieur and Crémant — a joyful community of generous, pleasure‑loving winegrowers. Here, there’s no need for an official occasion: you just open a bottle and raise a glass.
Graves-Sauternes
A story of families rooted in a land of character
Next stop: the birthplace of Bordeaux winemaking — Graves and Sauternes. On these distinctive soils, where gravel deposited over centuries brings warmth and natural drainage, generations of winegrowing families craft wines with real personality: elegant reds, vibrant dry whites bursting with freshness, and of course, lusciously expressive sweet wines.
Entre‑deux‑Mers, Premières Côtes de Bordeaux, Sainte‑Foy
A “great island” whose wines are its signature
A must‑see stop: Entre‑deux‑Mers. Nestled between two rivers, this vineyard landscape breathes nature, and its warmth and conviviality are everywhere. Here, you’ll taste some of Bordeaux’s most spirited, refreshing dry white wines.
Right Bank
Vines tended like gardens
Let’s continue toward a land whose names make wine lovers around the world dream: Saint‑Émilion, Pomerol and Fronsac. Along the Dordogne, you’ll wander through UNESCO‑listed heritage, charming villages, and a community of passionate artisans. The wines here — velvety, deep and built to age — also shine beautifully in their youth.
Médoc
Treasures shaped by wild nature
Now for the ocean shore: a narrow stretch of land swept by Atlantic winds — the Médoc. Between estuary and tides, visionary winegrowers have learned to tame the elements to craft wines that are at once precise, powerful and sensuous. An adventure in every glass, with stories layered in every sip.
Blaye-Bourg
Bold wines from estuary lands
To wrap up the journey, let’s take a little height on the hillsides of Blaye and Bourg. Welcoming and proud of their steep slopes, the local wine artisans love to surprise with rounded, delicately structured, highly drinkable wines. Here, a modern vision of Bordeaux is taking shape.
