About these gifts
Bordeaux, a venerated wine region in France, produces both red and white wines, though red Bordeaux blends are the most commonly discussed. Within Bordeaux, the different areas like the Left and Right Bank (of the Gironde river) produce different blends of the core red grapes: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, and Malbec. Most Left Bank wines are Cab Sauv-dominant (like Margaux) and most Right Bank wines are Merlot-dominant (like Cheval).
These Bordeaux fine wine gifts feature a variety of styles and Chateaux available. If you’re not sure what kind of Bordeaux to give, buy the most expensive one that fits your budget — Bordeaux prices are heavily market-driven based on both supply-and-demand and prestige.
FYI: I find great wine deals so you don’t have to. To keep me on the hunt, I earn a commission when you buy wine based on my recommendations.
