A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Bordeaux has been steeped in wine culture. You will find many wine bars within the city but also in its surroundings. You can visit the City of Wine but also the Châteaux, appreciate the landscape offered by the vineyards, discuss with the winegrowers of their profession, taste the different grape varieties. For the reds, you will have the choice between Cabernet-Sauvignon, Cabernet-Franc and Merlot. For whites, the most present are Sauvignon, Sémillon, and Muscadelle.
If you visit Bordeaux in the summer, don't miss the wine festival which takes place once every two years. There are 80 appellations on the 2 km long “wine route” where you go from counter to counter as if you were going from one vineyard to another. A unique and essential experience when we are already in the city. Everyone is there: young, old, the most prestigious, anonymous, beginners, amateurs, connoisseurs, enthusiasts.
