Union Square | In-Depth Bordeaux

You can't discuss French wine without first nodding to Bordeaux. Bordeaux has more land under vine than any other wine producing region in France. Located directly off of the Atlantic Ocean, the region has a history dating as far back as the 3rd Century. From age worthy, structured red wines, to dry white wines, and the sweet wines of Sauternes and more, Bordeaux sets the caliber for wines across the world, especially those Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot dominated blends. However long this prestigious history, Bordeaux is also one of the most innovative today, diversifying and planting new grape varieties to combat climate change, enacting environmental protections, and instilling rigorous parameters for new classifications. Topics of discussion include the principle grape varietals of Bordeaux, the 1855 Classification, top Châteaux, viticulture, regions, and climate.
