BORDEAUX – Importer & Distributor

“Take Versailles, add Antwerp, and you have Bordeaux” – Victor Hugo

“Let us take courage by the example of the French, whose exportation of Bordeaux wines increases as the area of their land in vineyards is diminished” - James Russell Lowell, Democracy: Inaugural Address on Assuming the Presidency of the Birmingham and Midland Institue, Birmingham, England, 6 October, 1884

Bordeaux “has about 117,000 hectares of vineyards, 57 appellations, 9,000 wine-producing châteaux, 13,000 grape growers, 400 traders, sales of 14.5 billion euros annually” and a Christmas song that ends with two empty bottles and a lonely wine-key. Bordeaux wines are best known for their ’Classified’ Growths established by the Bordeaux Wine Official Classification of 1855. Well Established, Few Wine Regions have Compared in Breadth and Depth to Bordeaux in providing Similarity to the Varicose and Pleasure to the Collector.

“O yes; I saw that treasure ere it left your house. Your grandfather was not merely a collector, he had a thorough knowledge of art” – J.W. von Goethe, Wilhelm Meister’s Apprenticeship. This photo depicts a nostalgic time for treasure hunters when Tushratta of the Mitanni stated that Gold, in Egypt, was more plentiful than dirt.

“What stuff you are all talking!” said Mme. Vauquer; “you would do better to treat us to your Bordeaux; I see a glimpse of a bottle there. It would keep us all in a good humor, and it is good for the stomach besides.” – Honore de Balzac (also a lover of Chateau D’Aqueria in Tavel), Old Goriot.

Bordeaux is the Birthplace of Montaigne (Of Drunkennefs), Rene Clement and Decimus Magnus Ausonius: Jejunis nil scribo: meum post pocula si quis legerit, hic sapiet…

(”I’ve never written for a fasting man; A taste of wine is good before my verse.”)
