| | Bordeaux Travel Information Lonely Planet Destination Guide |
| | Bordeaux has over 5000 chateaux (places where grapes are grown and fermented), which produce, on average, about 750 million bottles of wine a year - which is a lot of classy drink. | | | Tour the chateaux, imbibe the world-class wines and indulge in the regional cuisine, but remember that Bordeaux offers much more. | | | Bordeaux's proximity to the Atlantic Ocean protects its grapes - and visitors - from both frosty chills and excessive heat, so expect a mild climate. |

| | Among its many uses are applications in fall to control the overwintering fire blight inoculum in pears and apples, leaf curl and shot hole pathogens in peach and nectarine, downy mildew and powdery mildew fungi in grapes, peacock spot pathogen in olives, walnut blight bacteria in walnut, and black spot fungus in roses. | | | The old-fashioned way of making a Bordeaux mixture is to prepare "stock" solutions of lime and of copper sulfate that are later mixed by pouring them into water in the sprayer. | | | Thus, a 10-10-100 Bordeaux means: 10 pounds of copper sulfate, 10 pounds of lime, and 100 gallons of water. |
