Information about Bordeaux

Region	Bordeaux
Country	France
Climate and soil	Thanks to the proximity of the Atlantic, Bordeaux has a maritime climate with mild winters and quite cool summers. The pine forest along the sea to the north-east protects the area from the winds. July is the month with more hours of sunshine, but August is the hottest month. Precipitation can, from time to time, be abundant.
History	Probably the Romans were the first to plant the vineyard in Bordeaux, and the first to describe the area was the poet Ausonius (310-393 AD). He is also the first Bordeaux winemaker we know, with his quarter of a hectare of vineyards near the Garonne river. It has also given its name to the prestigious Château Ausine vineyard in the St. Emilion. In the centuries following the Roman era we have little evidence of Bordeaux and its viticulture, and it is only in the twelfth century that viticulture takes off. In 1200 there were vineyards in the Bourg, in Blaye, in the lower Dordogne and in the valleys of the Garonne river. The Graves was already then an important wine-growing area, where Pape Clémant is the oldest vineyard in the area. At that time, the Médoc was still a swamp, and only around the middle of the seventeenth century it was drained by the Dutch, who in that way created the conditions for the noble wines of Médoc 1er cru.
Typical products	The red vines are Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Malbec (Cot) and Petit Verdot. The differences between the various castles and districts depend to a large extent on the proportions between these vines. The vine that is most associated with Bordeaux is Cabernet Sauvignon, a vine with small grape and a very strong character of blackcurrant and cedar wood. Merlot is the most cultivated grape variety in Bordeaux, which has increased significantly in recent years. The merlot matures before and should not be aged as long as the Cabernet Sauvignon. Cabernet Franc has much in common with its relative cabernet sauvignon. Cabernet Franc has larger grains than Cabernet Sauvignon and the wines are often less dense. Malbec is sometimes used in Bordeaux to give color and tannins to wines. Petit Verdot has a good acidity and noble tannins, thus contributing to its quality and longevity.
Typical dishes	From the famous entrecôte to the prawns, through the porcini mushrooms and snails, local products are prepared à la bordelaise, named after the sauce made with red wine and shallot. The Bordeaux lamprey is representative of these specialties: fished in the Gironde estuary, this migratory fish is cooked with Médoc wine, leeks and a bouquet garni of aromas. From mid-February to the end of March, you can try this course at chez Fernand, a bistro with a terrace overlooking the Bordeaux riverside, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The whole South West is an ode to nature: asparagus, porcini, prunes, apples, walnuts and chestnuts add flavor to geese and ducks, whose breeding is a real cult. Poie gras poêlée, duck fillet, goose rillettes ... they are never lacking in restaurant menus. From Samatan, in the Gers, to Thiviers in the Dordogne, passing from Monségur in the Gironde or Saint-Sever in the Landes, visit the picturesque marchés au gras that take place throughout the winter: you will find capons, ducks, geese, and the famous foie gras Duck of the South West, now a symbol of French gastronomy that enjoys the PGI (Protected Geographical Indication) mark. Learn how to cook it with the chefs of Quai des Saveurs, in Bordeaux.
