The wine region of Côtes de Bourg
The "little Switzerland of the Gironde" on the right bank (north of Bordeaux facing the Médoc): signature Merlot reigns in reds — fleshy and gourmand with black cherry, blackberry, plum, blackcurrant and a sweet-spice touch, velvety tannins. Distinctive feature: Côt (Malbec), a renowned local grape giving colour, structure and personality — the only Bordeaux AOC to vinify it solo. Cabernet Sauvignon complements. Ageing 5-10 years.
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: Pulp
Fleshy and juicy part of the grape berry, it contains sugars, organic acids and various nitrogenous and mineral compounds.
