Bordeaux, dans le sud-ouest de la France, n'a besoin de guère d'introduction en tant que l'une des régions vinicoles les plus célèbres, prestigieuses et prolifiques du monde. La majorité des vins de Bordeaux (près de 90 pour cent du volume de production) sont les assemblages rouges secs, mi-corsés et corsés de Bordeaux qui ont établi sa réputation.

Les plus beaux (et les plus chers) de ces vins proviennent des grands châteaux du Haut-Médoc et des appellations de la Rive Droite Saint-Émilion et Pomerol. Le premier se concentre (au plus haut niveau) sur le Cabernet Sauvignon, la deuxième paire sur le Merlot.

Les rouges légendaires sont complétés par des vins blancs de haute qualité à base de Sémillon et de Sauvignon Blanc. Ceux-ci vont des blancs secs pour rivaliser avec les meilleurs de la région de Bourgogne (Pessac-Léognan est particulièrement réputé) aux nectars sucrés et botrytisés de Sauternes.
