==========================================
The wine regions of Bordeaux are a large number of wine growing areas, differing widely in size and sometimes overlapping, which lie within the overarching wine region of Bordeaux, centred on the city of Bordeaux and covering the whole area of the Gironde department of Aquitaine.
The Bordeaux region is naturally divided by the Gironde Estuary into a Left Bank area which includes the Médoc and Graves and a Right Bank area which includes the Libournais, Bourg and Blaye.
The Médoc is itself divided into Haut-Médoc (the upstream or southern portion) and Bas-Médoc (the downstream or northern portion, often referred to simply as Médoc).
There are various sub-regions within the Haut-Médoc, including St-Estèphe, Pauillac, St-Julien and Margaux and the less well known areas of AOC Moulis and Listrac.
Graves includes the sub-regions of Pessac-Léognan and Sauternes (among others), and Sauternes in turn includes the sub-region of Barsac.
The Libournais includes the sub-regions of Saint-Émilion and Pomerol (among others).
There is an additional wine region of Entre-Deux-Mers, so called because it lies between the Garonne and Dordogne rivers, which combine to form the Gironde.
This region contains several less well known sweet wine areas of Cadillac and St. Croix de Mont.
All of these regions (except the Libournais) have their own appellation and are governed by Appellation d'origine contrôlée laws which dictate the permissible grape varieties, alcohol level, methods of pruning and picking, density of planting and appropriate yields as well as various winemaking techniques.
Bordeaux wine labels will usually include the region on the front if all the grapes have been harvested in a specific region and the wine otherwise complies with the AOC requirements.
There are about 50 AOCs applicable to the Bordeaux region.
Both red and white Bordeaux wines are almost invariably blended.
The permissible grape varieties in red Bordeaux are: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot.
While wine making styles vary, a rule of thumb is that the Left Bank is predominately Cabernet Sauvignon based with the Right Bank being more Merlot based.
The Graves area produces both red wine (from the grapes previously mentioned) and white wine from the Sauvignon blanc, Sémillon and Muscadelle grapes.
The area of Sauternes (including Barsac) is known for its botrytized dessert wines.

The Best of Southwest France Escorted Tour 2019 - PerryGolf.com
Fully Hosted Luxury Golf & Wine Package Vacation - Detailed Itinerary and Pricing available at | The Best of Southwest France Escorted 2019 ~ Bordeaux and Biarritz | 11 Nights | 5 Rounds | 4 Wine Tastings | September 6 - 17, 2019 | POST-TOUR OPTION – Paris including Golf at the 2018 Ryder Cup Venue
PerryGolf is thrilled to offer The Best of Southwest France Escorted Tour, a fully managed fixed itinerary featuring 11-nights and 5 rounds exploring the Bordeaux and Biarritz, where gastronomic, cultural and scenic pleasures abound. Taste wine at Château du Tertre, take guided tours of Bordeaux, Perigord and Arcachon Bay, enjoy lunch at La Corniche. The golf is equally outstanding, on five diverse courses, including St. Emilion, a recent creation from renowned American architect Tom Doak.
Bordeaux and Biarritz regions are located in the southwest of France, a region known for its rich gastronomy as well as the exceptional wines produced in the Bordeaux region. From the Gironde estuary, a long straight coast, except for the notch formed by the basin of Arcachon, extends towards the south. It is the Landes de Gascogne with miles of beaches lined by a vast pine forest. A rugged terrain begins to emerge in the south in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques, where Biarritz and Bayonne are the main cities of Basque Country, a territory with strong identity. To the northwest, the Perigord and its forests are full of castles, villages and prehistoric sites like the cave of Lascaux. To the south the Lot et Garonne is dedicated to rural tourism.
In Bordeaux, savor the region’s renowned wines on a visit to Château Pichon Longueville; enjoy a guided tour of the city, rich with 2,000 years of history; discover Vinotherapy which blends hot natural water with the enhancing property of grapes for a revolutionary skin care treatment;
Following our short drive to Biarritz, take a guided tour of The Bassin d'Arcachon (Arcachon Bay), a beautiful nature preserve; explore the city’s fashion boutiques and shopping district; enjoy a tapas tour of San Sebastian. Farther south, relax in a prestige room at Château des Vigiers, a magnificent castle dating back to 1597 located in the beautiful countryside near Bergerac; enjoy dinner at Moutier Thenac, a 19th century farmhouse converted to a traditional restaurant serving local cuisine.
The golf on our Tour includes courses that appeal to golfers of all skill levels. Medoc les Châteaux, a former host course on the European Tour, is carved from the tradition of Scottish links. Golf D'Arcangues is a short but demanding layout (140 slope) offering panoramic views of the Pyrenees mountains. Biarritz Le Phare was designed in the British tradition, borders the Atlantic Ocean and is the second oldest golf course built in France. Château des Vigiers is a relaxing Donald Steel layout winding around the grounds of the castle. Saint Emilion is the gem of the tour. Designed by Tom Doak (Pacific Dunes, Cape Kidnappers), the course flows and unfolds through a valley on undisturbed ground.
If you enjoy combining your love of golf with a passion for travel, you’ll find a relaxing and highly rewarding experience on this Escorted Tour for a party of 24-30. Every aspect is fully managed from the handling of your luggage and equipment to hotel and golf course check ins. Various meals, guided sightseeing, carts / caddies, local taxes, service charges and gratuities (excluding caddies) are included in addition to sandwiches, snacks plus an open bar for beer and wine during our time at each of the golf courses. Best of all, this PerryGolf vacation promises an ideal opportunity to join a group of like-minded new friends.

How to taste Bertinerie wine
Located in CUBNEZAIS, in the Blaye Côtes de Bordeaux appellation, the Château Bertinerie has been owned by the same family for close to two centuries.
The BERTINERIE vineyard is a family owned business run by DANIEL BANTEGNIES and his two sons, Eric and Frantz. With an area of approximately 60 hectares, it includes three vineyards, three terroirs, and three castles:
Château BERTINERIE
Château HAUT BERTINERIE
Château MANON LA LAGUNE
They produce red wines, pale wines, dry white wines and rosé wines in the Blaye Côtes de Bordeaux appellation.
The vineyard is characterized by the use of the lyre training system and the practice of reasoned agriculture (lutte raisonnée) which is close to organic growing, as well as manual harvests. Wines sold are ready to drink. They are produced and aged in the underground cellars.
Our wines are served in 71 starred restaurants across France and exported in 23 countries. To this day, they have won 59 gold, silver and bronze medals.
