The wine region of Libournais

Rich in world-renowned wines, such as Saint-Emilion Grands Crus and Bordeaux/libournais/pomerol">Pomerol, the Libourne region Lies on the right bank of the Dordogne, on the edge of the Périgord. The region takes its name from the port city of Libourne, where many merchants from the Correze settled in the early 19th century. But its jewel is the small medieval city of Saint-Emilion, listed as a Unesco World Heritage Site and one of the most famous showcases of the Bordeaux wine region. The region is very homogeneous due to its hilly landscapes, its geology (predominantly limestone subsoil), the concentration of vineyards and the importance of family-run, small or medium-sized estates, which contrast with the large Medoc-type estates.


The wine region of Bordeaux

Bordeaux, in southwestern France, is one of the most famous, prestigious and prolific wine regions in the world. The majority of Bordeaux wines (nearly 90% of the production Volume) are the Dry, medium and Full-bodied red Bordeaux blends for which it is famous. The finest (and most expensive) are the wines of the great châteaux of Haut-Médoc and the right bank appellations of Saint-Émilion and Pomerol. The former focuses (at the highest level) on Cabernet Sauvignon, the latter on Merlot.
