The wine region of Graves
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.
The wine region of Bordeaux
World-renowned age-worthy reds, led by round Merlot (plum, black fruit) or firm Cabernet Sauvignon (blackcurrant, cedar, graphite), blended with Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot for tannic structure. Structured Médoc and Graves, velvety Saint-Émilion and Pomerol. Also crisp dry whites (Sauvignon/Sémillon) and opulent sweet Sauternes with honey and candied fruit. A 110,000 ha Gironde vineyard, 65 appellations, cradle of the 1855 classified growths.
The word of the wine: Phylloxera
Aphid that came from America and ravaged European vineyards at the end of the 19th century. It lives on the roots of the vine, from which it pumps the sap. The only vines capable of resisting it had to be imported from the United States, and then grafted onto their root system the wood of traditional French grape varieties. Today, grafted vines are always planted.
