France, home of Bordeaux, Burgundy and Champagne, is undoubtedly the most important wine producing country in the world. For centuries, it produced wine in greater quantities than any other country. Wine is ingrained in French culture at almost every level of society; it is the drink of the elite and the common people, and a key symbol of Roman Catholicism, the majority religion in France. The diversity of French wines is due, in large part, to the country's wide variety of climates.

The Bordeaux vineyard, famous for its prestigious wines, covers several distinct areas in France, each producing one-of-a-kind wines. The left bank, known for the Médoc and Graves appellations, produces structured red wines based on Cabernet Sauvignon, famous for their aging potential. On the right bank, regions like Saint-Émilion and Pomerol favor Merlot, producing rounder, more accessible wines when young.

Between the two, Entre-Deux-Mers is known for its dry, fresh and aromatic white wines, mainly based on Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon. Viticulture and winemaking methods in Bordeaux combine tradition and innovation, with a growing interest in sustainable and biodynamic practices. This blend of terroir, tradition and technique continues to make Bordeaux wines a global reference point for wine lovers.
