 Just mentioning the word ‘bordeaux’ makes many winelovers salivate. And justifiably so: the world of wine revolves around bordeaux. Wineries throughout the world emulate what the bordelais started over 100 years ago: classifying the best areas and climates and setting high standards for the production of quality wines.California has even adopted the terminology ‘appellation’ to connect wine with terroir, that great word developed by the French.
