Historic cradle of Bordeaux wine, left bank south of the city. Structured reds on siliceous gravel: firm cassis-laden Cabernet Sauvignon, velvety Merlot, perfumed Cabernet Franc, signature notes of black fruit, smoke, graphite and cigar box. Elegant dry whites blending Sauvignon (citrus, boxwood, freshness) and Sémillon (wax, honey, richness with ageing), among Bordeaux's longest-lived. Also sweet Graves Supérieures.

Structured Médoc and Graves, velvety Saint-Émilion and Pomerol. Also crisp dry whites (Sauvignon/Sémillon) and opulent sweet Sauternes with honey and candied fruit.
