The wine region of Libournais

Bordeaux right bank around Libourne, the world cradle of great Merlots. Velvety, opulent reds with signature notes of ripe plum, black cherry, truffle, cocoa, leather and sweet spices, round tannins and a fleshy palate - age-worthy wines. Dominant Merlot (70-80%) thrives on cold clay-limestone, complemented by Cabernet Franc (Bouchet) with raspberry and bell-pepper notes. Stars: Saint-Émilion (UNESCO), Pomerol (Pétrus), Fronsac.

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.
