Detailed analysis of Burgundy
Médoc
Home of some of the world’s most expensive bottles, Médoc is precisely on the 45th parallel. The region covers 16,000 hectares of vineyards in total, around 5500 hectares are classified as AOC. There are 8 appellations inside the AOC area, among which, four villages enjoy the most prestigious status: Pauillac, Margaux, Saint-Estèphe and Saint-Julien. With only red wines produced in the AOCs of Médoc, the gravel-based soil provide good drainage and heat retention, perfect for slow-ripening grapes like Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. In the north part of the region, Merlot and Cabernet Franc perform better on the more clayey soil. Classic, powerful, elegant, Médoc is unquestionably the most famous French wine region in the world.

Libournais
Surrounding the historic trade center of Bordeaux wine, the city of Libourne, Libournais encompasses Saint-Emillion, Pomerol, Fronsac and a few smaller and stellite appellations, commonly known as the Right Bank of Bordeaux. This region produces the world’s best Merlot-based wines, with Cabernet Franc playing a significant part. Clay, limestone, sandy clay, and siliceous clay can be found in Libournais. Different soil compositions in different parts of the region create a diversified style of wine. The full-bodied, robust wines from Fronsac, smooth, elegant wines from Pomerol, and the minerality found in Saint Émilion wines, which is the result of soil rich in limestone. Saint-Emilion and Pomerol are where most fine wines come from. Compared with those in the Left Bank, the wine estates in this region are relatively smaller, notably in Pomerol, where many premium wines produced by small estates are often referred to as “garage wine”.

Sauternais
Located inside the Graves region, Sauternes and Barsac are famous for their botrytis-affected nectar, commonly known as “noble rot”. The morning frog produced by the Ciron river adds humidity which favors the growth of fungus. The grapes are desiccated by fungus, remaining concentrated sugar, and producing intense, rich, sweet wines. The botrytized wines from this region cost much more for their unique production process. Low yields result from evaporation and fungus affections, which are one-fifth to one-sixth of those in other Bordeaux regions. Grape pickers need to travel through the vineyards multiple times between September and November to ensure that the berries are plucked at their peak. The wine is then fermented in small oak barrels, which raises the price even further.

Entre-deux-Mers
With a name derived from “marée”, the French word for “tide”, Entre-Deux-Mers is in between the rivers of Garonne and Dordogne. This area is characterized by a series of slopes, plateaux, and valleys, as well as a large number of châteaux and abbeys. On the limestone plateau, clay-limestone soil is the most common. All colors of wine are produced in the region, including red, rosé, dry white as well as sweet wines in the southern villages. However, The Entre-Deux-Mers AOC is only granted to dry white wines, which must be made from a combination of three grape varieties: Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon, and Muscadelle and have a minimum alcohol content of 11.5 percent and a maximum residual sugar level. The red and rosé wines are labeled as Bordeaux or Bordeaux Supérieur.

Graves
Down to the south of the left bank of Garonne, here lies Graves. Unlike other red dominant subregions in Bordeaux, Graves is where the dry white wines share the spotlight with the reds. The name “Graves”, is derived from the gravel-based soil, which provides optimal drainage for the grapes. Red wines are predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon, with Merlot and other grapes in the blend. Dry whites are a blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon. Inside Graves, Pessac-Léognan is the jewel on the crown. All estates classified in Graves classification are located in this appellation. The region also covers the sweet wine appellations in the south side, producing sweet wines with Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon and Muscadelle.

Blayais-Bourgeais
North of Libournais, this area sits on the Right Bank of rivers, the oldest wine-producing region in Bordeaux seems to be forgotten by the wine critics and the trade. Blaye and Bourg started exporting wine long before the vineyards in Médoc were even planted. Over the hard limestone rock, the soils are mostly clay-limestone mixed with gravel. Merlot is the primary variety, accounting for 55% of the growing area, but it is blended with Cabernet Sauvignon, rather than Cabernet Franc or Malbec. Today, with the settlement of new owners and the improvement of quality standards, this region offers typical Bordeaux wines but value for money.
