For choosy wine drinkers who already know what type of wine they like, you can tailor your Bordeaux selection to any taste. Bordeaux produces just about every style of wine, including red (Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon), dry white (Sauvignon Blanc), sweet white (Semillon), rosé, and even sparkling.

For the adventurer or creative in your life, why not ask your local wine shop to recommend a lesser-known Bordeaux appellation? With over 60 different appellations, there’s always something new to discover. Bordeaux is made up of over 7,000 châteaux, most of them small and family-run, making it a region with countless stories (and wines!) to discover.
