The Bordeaux vineyard is still not widely celebrated in the natural wine world, which is a shame: the largest AOC vineyard in France (encompassing all the appellations of the Gironde) shines with its diversity and the quality of its terroirs. It produces wonderful organic and natural wines like any other wine region. Topography
The Bordeaux vineyard has 57 appellations divided among 7 main regions located on either side of the Garonne and its estuary, the Gironde. These regions are, on the left bank and from north to south: Médoc, Graves, Sauternes-Barsac; and on the right bank, the whole of the North Right Bank (Côtes de Bordeaux, Blaye-Côtes-de-Bordeaux, Côtes-de-Bourg, Fronsac, Canon-Fronsac…), Pomerol, the Saint-Émilionnais with its satellites (Montagne-Saint-Émilion, Côtes-de-Castillon, etc.) and Entre-Deux-Mers. Bordeaux red wines are best known, celebrated for their grand cru classés in 1855 (Médoc and Sauternes) or later (Saint-Émilion, Graves). However, white wines can be prestigious, especially sweet wines (Sauternes, Barsac, Sainte-Croix-du-Mont…). The Médoc includes major appellations such as AOC Saint-Julien, AOC Pauillac, AOC Margaux, AOC Saint-Estèphe… In the Graves, the Pessac-Léognan appellation is practically included in the Bordeaux urban fabric.
The art of blending
Blending is a skill that Bordeaux has brought to the wine world. Single-varietal wines are rare here, and Bordeaux blends produce superb, fine, and deep wines, through great vintages that have remained famous. Tannin extraction is mastered by skillful control of maceration. The reds are tannic, based on Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc grape varieties, with the first dominating on the left bank and the other two on the right bank. These red wines are appreciated for their notes of black fruits and red fruits, their spicy profile, their elegance, and their great aging qualities, which do not prevent young vintages from being drunk.
White wines are mainly made in Entre-Deux-Mers and Graves, primarily based on Sauvignon and Sémillon grape varieties with a little Muscadelle. The sweet white wines of Sauternes and Barsac, based on the same grape varieties, include world-famous crus such as Château d'Yquem or Château Climens. Sauternes-Barsac wines go with practically everything, not just foie gras. In the past, they were taken on hunts to accompany cold cuts and cured meats.
What are the different types of Bordeaux wines? Red wines are the most common category. They can be made in Médoc (appellations Haut-Médoc, Médoc, Margaux, Saint-Julien, Pauillac, and Saint-Estèphe), in Graves (with the Pessac-Léognan appellation), on the right bank (Saint-Émilion, Puisseguin Saint-Émilion, Montagne Saint-Émilion, Côtes-de-Castillon, Pomerol, Lalande-de-Pomerol, Côtes-de-Bourg, Blaye-Côtes-de-Bordeaux, etc.), as well as the Bordeaux and Bordeaux Supérieur appellations which can come from throughout the region.
Dry white wines are numerous in Entre-Deux-Mers (a region that takes its name from its location between the Garonne and the Dordogne), in Sauternais and in Graves. A Médoc blanc AOP is currently being created. If Sauvignon dominates, they are fresh and slightly smoky, and Sémillon gives them fruitiness and richness.
Sweet and luscious wines are always white, coming from the appellations Sauternes, Sauternes-Barsac (or simply Barsac), Loupiac, Sainte-Croix-du-Mont, and Cadillac.
Sparkling wines are grouped under the Crémant de Bordeaux appellation when they are not natural sparkling wines.
Rosé wines can be pale, but they are most often a deep pink and are then called "clairets," a very old type of wine that originated in Bordeaux. Before the dark, tannic, age-worthy red Bordeaux was invented in the 17th century (when it was decided to plant vines on gravelly ridges rather than on the banks of waterways), this clairet was the only red wine produced in Bordeaux. Since then, clairet has been more assimilated to a rosé.
What food and wine pairings for a red Bordeaux wine? Red Bordeaux wines traditionally pair with red meats (Bordeaux entrecôte with shallots and a wine sauce; Pauillac lamb shank…), cold cuts, cured meats, certain wine-braised dishes (and even fish like lamprey à la bordelaise, cooked in a red wine sauce with leeks), and traditional long-cooked dishes. The older a vintage, the more it calls for red meats. Younger vintages can pair with a wider variety of dishes.
How to taste a red Bordeaux wine? A red Bordeaux should not be tasted too cold, but it should not be lukewarm either: between 12 and 14°C is ideal. The older it is, the higher its tasting temperature. It requires a large, bulbous, stemmed glass, called a "Bordeaux glass," which is best chosen large enough to better express the aromas. It is important not to touch the bowl of the glass with your fingers but to always hold it by the stem. You can forgo swirling the wine in the glass, but this also facilitates aromatic perception. A good Bordeaux is drunk in small sips, without rushing, savoring it.

To find out more
Château Frédignac, a 100% organic estate (Nature & Progrès), is located in the Blaye-Côtes-de-Bordeaux appellation, very close to the small town of Blaye, practically on the banks of the Gironde. Founded in 1918 by Jean-Marie L’Amouller, a Breton sailor who found happiness on the right bank of the estuary — which is called “the River” here — it became a quality wine estate a few years later by absorbing the vineyard of a property with a centuries-old reputation, Château Saugeron. The appellation is best known for its velvety, deep red wines, in which Château Frédignac excels. But the achievements of this wine estate dedicated to respecting the terroir and virtuous agricultural practices do not end there: an organic white is produced, as well as several natural cuvées of various colors, from pet'nat'rosé to still red. The red grape varieties are typical of the appellation — the two Cabernets, Franc and Sauvignon; Merlot, Carménère and Côt (Malbec) — and the whites (Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon) are similar. The clay-limestone soils promote both soil drainage and their beneficial freshness for the vines. Combined with methods that are deeply respectful of the soil, plants, animals and winemaking, these pedological conditions allow the Château Frédignac team to be proud of its wines: as worthy of their local tradition as they are in keeping with the desire to work as closely as possible to the natural.

Back to Blaye, a superb organic and natural red Bordeaux, has everything to seduce you: it once again reflects the excellence of organic wines produced on Bordeaux soils. You'll first admire the beautiful deep carmine color before perceiving the Blaye-Côtes-de-Bordeaux signature on the nose: black fruits, red fruits, exemplary vinosity, a delicious roundness underpinned by tannins that are still a little rustic due to the wine's youth. Bordeaux, as you know, generally requires waiting, and the fact that the wine is organic and natural doesn't change anything.

Back to Blaye (exclusive cuvée), Red 2023
Château Frédignac
A retro nod for a wine firmly rooted in the present: "Back to Blaye" embodies a new generation of natural red Bordeaux, resulting from precise work in both the vineyard and the cellar. Château Frédignac, a pioneer of clean and committed viticulture in the Blaye – Côtes de Bordeaux appellation, has created an exclusive 2023 cuvée that is both expressive and digestible.
Valued terroir, committed expertise

The winemaking remains true to the natural spirit: destemmed maceration for two weeks, without oenological intervention or exogenous yeasts, followed by aging in concrete tanks to preserve the fruit's brilliance.
A lively and generous red
On the nose, the wine releases aromas of ripe black fruits, fresh herbs and sweet spices. On the palate, the attack is supple, the tannins present but well integrated, supported by a beautiful freshness. The wine gains intensity throughout the tasting, with a rounded and balanced texture.

Château Bonnet Eden Red 2021
Les Vignobles Andre Lurton
We first discover a beautiful, deep, vermillion color, a lovely cherry red with some purple highlights that will fade as the wine ages. The nose of this Eden cuvée offers notes of peony and crisp red fruit (cherry, morello cherry) enhanced with a touch of pepper. On the palate, the wine attacks frankly, with plenty of fruit and freshness. The tannic structure is medium, and the tannins are well-integrated. There is a very nice volume on the mid-palate. The olfactory sensation of crisp, juicy cherry is confirmed on the palate. This is a very indulgent, digestible, and very easy-drinking wine, where the fruity notes express themselves freely, with the fullness of the unsulfured wine. It will be appreciated as an aperitif and on any other occasion, but we see it especially at the table, with dishes that are not too sophisticated, dishes of good humor - beautiful grilled red meats, golden duck breasts, country salads: with confit duck gizzards, lentils... The digestibility of wines is a concept that is increasingly close to our hearts; red Bordeaux have long held the torch and we invite you to experience it with this lovely red Entre-Deux-Mers. Château Bonnet cuvée Eden is produced, for the cultivation and vinification, in biocontrol (set of plant protection methods based on the use of natural mechanisms). It is vinified in concrete eggs and classified as Vin de France. No sulfite has been added, either in the vineyard or in the cellar.

Lurton is a name that resonates strongly throughout the Bordeaux region: this dynasty of winegrowers, currently represented in France by around ten owners of wine châteaux and a company (Les Vignobles André Lurton) bringing together several estates, has distinguished itself at the head of prestigious properties including several classified growths, from Château-Cheval-Blanc to Château-d'Yquem via Château-Climens... Château Bonnet is the cradle of the Lurton dynasty, planted at the end of the 19th century by the liqueur maker Léonce Récapet, a visionary of viticulture who passed on the virus to most of his descendants. This beautiful estate in the Entre-Deux-Mers has one hundred and twenty hectares of vines. It is traditionally planted with Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon, and produces white, rosé and red wines. Under the leadership of its new director Mathilde Bazin de Caix and on selected plots, it has recently taken over the management of biocontrol viticulture and vinification, as well as natural wine without chemical or exogenous inputs added to the vineyard or the cellar. For the moment, this is the only Eden vintage, but we hope to produce others in the near future.
Les Cadets Rouge 2019
Château Les Graves de Viaud
A typical Bordeaux blend, the Côtes-de-Bourg of the Les Cadets cuvée is composed of Cabernet (Sauvignon and Franc, 70%) and Merlot (30%) grown on iron-rich silty gravel and clayey gravel, and co-fermented in stainless steel vats for better synergy between the grape varieties. Vinification begins with a cold prefermentative maceration and continues with a gentle, slow extraction. Fermentation is carried out using indigenous yeasts; no sulfites are added. The wine is aged in sandstone amphorae for at least ten months on fine lees to refine the tannins. The geological conditions give the Cabernets a refreshing tannic base and accentuate the roundness and fruitiness of the Merlot, while giving it a very seductive floral aromatic palette. The bouquet of blackcurrant and blackberry that appears on the nose is confirmed on the palate. 2019 is still young as we write these lines: this wine will wait a few years, and it will only get better for it.
Cuvée O Red 2014
With this 2014 vintage, Domaine Les Graves de Viaud offers us a still red wine that perfectly embodies the natural elegance of the Côtes de Bourg. Made from biodynamically grown Cabernet Franc, this wine benefits from the Demeter and AB labels, guaranteeing practices that respect the land and the vines, without chemical additives or winemaking artifices. Here, nature expresses itself freely, revealing the authenticity of the Bordeaux terroir.
This exclusive cuvée (1,200 bottles) of Côtes-de-Bourg is composed of 60% Cabernet Franc. The vines grow on gently sloping hillsides with clayey gravel soils. Harvesting is done by hand, destemmed, and not crushed. Carried out in egg-shaped vats, the skin maceration is long: up to three months at a controlled temperature. Fermentation is done using indigenous yeasts, and no sulfur is added at bottling. This wine, as delicate as it is profound, has the distinction of being vegan (no animal products, therefore no egg-based fining). The nose, fresh and spontaneous, offers notes of plum, violet, and peony. The palate is pulpy, crisp, and fresh, seductive: mainly blackcurrant and blackberry. The tannins are silky and melted, yet powerful.
To the eye, this 2014 reveals a deep red color with garnet highlights, a sign of beautiful development. The nose opens generously after decanting, revealing aromas of ripe red fruits, morello cherry and raspberry, subtly enhanced by spicy notes and a vegetal touch typical of Cabernet Franc. On the palate, the attack is supple, giving way to fine and elegant tannins. The balance between freshness and structure is remarkable, with a persistent finish that reveals slightly peppery and mineral nuances.
This wine will pair wonderfully with dishes of character such as duck breast with figs, a gratin of root vegetables or even a platter of mature cheeses. Served between 16 and 18°C, it will reveal all its complexity after decanting.
With its 13.5% alcohol and its aging potential of 5 to 10 years, this 2014 vintage can be enjoyed now for its freshness or waited in the cellar for a deeper expression of its terroir.
