Bordeaux - the very name is synonymous with all that is great about wine and is often regarded as the epicentre of fine wine, its top wines envied, collected, traded and discussed at great length in every corner of the globe. Produced in the Bordeaux region of southwestern France, surrounding the city of Bordeaux, where the Garonne River flows gently into the Dordogne, forming the mighty Gironde estuary.
Explore our large collection of Bordeaux wines from the top Bordeaux regions showcasing a range of styles as impressive as the number of large and decorative Chateaux that lie scattered throughout the Bordeaux region. Crisp dry to richly sweet white wines, it is however the Bordeaux red wines which are the mainstay of the region, tasting from light and fresh to richly brooding and full bodied.
The famous Medoc communes of Pauillac, Margaux, St Julien and St Estephe on the left bank claim the majority of column inches and avid wine fans due to their almost cult-like following and quality, whilst in the right bank appellations of St Emilion and Pomerol the estates and their production are smaller & the Chateau slightly more muted but the wines are equally judged as some of the finest in the World. Likewise to the south of Bordeaux the sweet wines of Sauternes and Barsac are amongst the best and most expensive in the World, and rightly so. Outside of these famed communes are large swathes of smaller communes and appellations scattered all over the region, some fragmented and separate, others rubbing cheek by jowl with neighbours but all fighting to make great wine that ( almost, but never quite ) emulates the more famous ( and expensive ) Communes.
