Red Bordeaux wines are usually made from grapes such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Malbec. They vary from light and fruity to full and powerful, depending on the blend and the terroir.

Bordeaux also offers some of the world's most expensive and prestigious wines, such as the Grand Crus Classés from the Médoc and Saint-Émilion.

Bordeaux wines are often produced by historic Châteaux with a long tradition of winemaking, but there are also many smaller producers using emerging styles and innovative techniques. In general, Bordeaux wines are known for their excellent quality, versatility at the table and ability to age, making them beloved by wine lovers around the world.
