Designations


 

Located on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean, the Bordelais vineyard comprises the entire department of the Gironde with around 119,000 hectares, becoming the AOC wine region most important in France.  

 

The complex multi-AOC system of the Gironde department ranges from the entire region to much smaller areas. Specifically, Bordeaux has 60 AOC spread throughout its territory.

 


Varieties and Wines


 

In addition to such divergent nature of its soils, the mixture of strains allows to obtain a great diversity of world-renowned quality wines.  

 

Good knowledge of the soils has allowed to optimize the choice of grape varieties to achieve wines with exceptional flavours and aromas.

 


Classification


 

The Bordeaux region, in addition to the existing AOCs, has as a peculiarity: a complex system of different classifications of its wines in an attempt to create different hierarchies of quality and prestige that has been in effect since 160 years.

 

These classifications are independent and different from the AOC that appears on the wine label.
