Description: | The great Gironde Estuary divides southwest France?s famed Bordeaux wine region into the left and right banks. On the left bank, stretching from the Atlantic Ocean down to the city of Bordeaux lies the legendary vineyards of M?doc. Up until the 17th century this area primarily consisted of marshlands. However, at that time demand for French wine was increasing and potential was seen. This prompted a crew of Dutch engineers to drain the area, uncovering a mineral-rich gravelly soil that was ideal for viticulture. The wines of M?doc quickly rose to acclaim. In the Bordeaux Wine Classification of 1855, which divided the best crus into categories, the majority of the red wines that made the list were from M?doc. Today the region remains among the most revered in the world. |
