Our Wines
Our passion and expertise lies with vintage wines from the Bordeaux region of France, and we trade only with these wines. Wine making in the Bordeaux region dates back nearly 2000 years to the Roman conquest and has a rich and vibrant history. The Bordeaux region provides perfect conditions for fine wine making, with great soil structure and a temperate climate. Despite competition from new wine regions across the globe, French wine, and Bordeaux in particular, still has a reputation for being the best in the world.
While there are thousands of Châteaux in Bordeaux, each producing their own brand of wine, at Bordeaux UK we specialise only in the fine wines, mostly known as the Grand Crus, produced in the region.
