**Bordeaux** is a large, historically influential wine region in southwestern France centred on the Gironde estuary, famous above all for its structured, ageworthy red blends. **Wines & grapes** — Reds dominate, built mainly from Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot (with Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, and Malbec in support). It also makes dry whites from Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon, plus the sweet, botrytised wines of Sauternes. **Character** — The Left Bank (gravel soils) favours firm, Cabernet-led wines; the Right Bank (clay and limestone) leans on plush, Merlot-led ones. **Good to know** — The 1855 Classification ranked the top Médoc châteaux into five growths, a hierarchy still referenced today.
