Bordeaux wines


Simply put, God touches every bottle....
 

A Bordeaux wine is any wine produced in the Bordeaux region of France, centred on the city of Bordeaux and covering the whole area of the Gironde department, with a total vineyard area of over 120,000 hectares, making it the largest wine growing area in France. Average vintages produce over 700 million bottles of Bordeaux wine, ranging from large quantities of everyday table wine, to some of the most expensive and prestigious wines in the world.
 
There are 54 appellations, aka (designation of origin)
of Bordeaux wine.
 
Color : Red
Pairing : Pork, Chicken or Beef
Cheese : Brie of course.....my favorite
 
Chateau Petrus - Vintage 1989
                                                                                          
 
I have had the pleasure of drinking Petrus and as I said in the
beginning, touched by God.....
