The Region

Bordeaux, France

Bordeaux, one of the most famous wine regions in the world, has also seen a rise in natural winemaking practices in recent years. Situated along the Garonne and Dordogne rivers in southwestern France, Bordeaux boasts a diverse terroir of gravel, clay, and limestone soils, as well as a maritime climate ideal for viticulture. Natural winemakers in Bordeaux prioritize organic and biodynamic farming methods, cultivating classic grape varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Sauvignon Blanc with minimal intervention. By eschewing chemical additives and focusing on natural fermentation, they produce wines that showcase the region's unique terroir and the purity of the fruit. Bordeaux's natural wines are known for their elegance, complexity, and balance, with reds offering rich dark fruit flavors, structured tannins, and subtle earthy undertones, while whites present crisp acidity, floral aromatics, and vibrant citrus notes. As the demand for authentic and terroir-driven wines continues to grow, Bordeaux remains at the forefront of the natural wine movement, offering a taste of its prestigious winemaking tradition and commitment to sustainability with every bottle.
