 Bordeaux Wine Bordeaux wines BORDEAUX Wine regions
The wines of Sauternes are made from botrysized Sauvignon Blanc and Semillion grapes.
Sauternes, the archetypal sweet white wine is made from a blend of Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle, as are other dry white wines.
The red wines of Bordeaux, all made of a blend from three and sometimes five permitted red grape varieties, are arguably the world's most famous reds.

 Bordeaux - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bordeaux wine draws its name from the city around which it has been produced since the 8th century.
For more about the wine crisis in Bordeaux, see Bordeaux wine.
The 18th century was its golden age, because of the wine trade with the British Isles and Germany and the trades with the West Indies.

 Bordeaux Wine Guide: Pauillac, St Julien, Sauternes, Barsac and more
The dry white wines are produced from the Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon grapes, as are Sauternes and the other sweet wines of the region, although they may also contain small amounts of the Muscadelle grape.
The wines are often described as expensive because of the hand-picking required to select the nobly-rotted grapes, and because of the low yield produced by the concentrated grapes.
The red wine of Bordeaux may be produced from a number of grapes, mainly Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc, although small amounts of Malbec and Petit Verdot are also used.

 Bordeaux Wine Official Classification of 1855 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Brokers from the wine industry ranked the wines according to a château's reputation and trading price, which at that time was directly related to quality.
The white wines, then of much less importance than red wine, were limited to the sweet varieties of Sauternes and Barsac and were ranked only from first great growth to second growth.
The wines were ranked in importance from first to fifth growths (crus).

 Bordeaux Collectors' Wine Tasting
Wines if cellared properly (this can be a very scientific process) will hold their “color” (taste, nose, and physical color) through the years; if not cellared correctly you will lose precious nuances of the wine, which will be felt on your palate during the food pairing, challenges which are out of the Chef’s control.
The consensus was that the sauce was a bit spicy for this flight of wine.
Collectors of wine look forward to this type of event so they can taste and discuss, with other oenophiles, a unique vintage such as the 1955 Bordeaux wines prior to procuring select wines for their personal collection.

A lifelong resident of Bordeaux, Xiradakis is the proprietor and chef of La Tupina, the city's most popular restaurant, and deservedly so.
During the tasting season, Bordeaux's highways and byways teem with carloads of slightly inebriated oenophiles, their teeth and tongues stained purple by young tannic wines, dashing furiously from chateau to chateau.
We visited a few interesting neighborhoods—Quartier St.-Pierre, the old section of the city, with its narrow, dingy streets, had a sleepy charm—visited his cheese monger (the famed Jean d'Alos), meat supplier, and baker; and we drank a lot of coffee.
