Information About Bordeaux Wine Company

The Bordeaux Wine Company is a name that immediately evokes, tradition, romance, fine wining and dining – the world of the bon vivant, elegance and knowledge, sophistication, refinement and intelligence – and with good reason.

The French city of Bordeaux in the country’s southwest is the epicenter of the world’s finest wine production and trade. Since the 8th century this beautiful region of over 118,000 hectares of vineyards has been producing fine wines, and now in the 21st century is home to over 8,500 winemakers, harvesting original vintage grape varieties and turning out around 700 million bottles each year of some of the most superb wine in the world, as well as vast quantities of exceptionally good table wine.

Here in this fertile landscape and with naturally ideal growing conditions, some of the world's oldest grapevines are cultivated in some of the best-known vineyards in the world. Here, the skilled workers are part of an esteemed viticulture tradition – families working with the vines on the gentle slopes of the region over generations, with a profound and perpetuating love for the production of great wine. Many grape varieties started their colorful and international lives here. Cabernet (which typically makes up 70% of what is known as the Bordeaux Blend), Merlot and Sauvignon Blanc all have their origins in Bordeaux. These vintage grapes and their wines have perennial value, just like great art.

Thus Bordeaux and its yearly Bordeaux Wine Fair has become the hub for wine lovers, connoisseurs and savvy investors alike as the potential for entrance into the fascinating world of wine investment becomes more popular with investment houses and solo investors throughout Europe, the US and more recently Asia. First Harvest wines created at the sumptuous Bordeaux houses are a prestigious and unsurprisingly safe addition to a diversified portfolio.
