Bordeaux - Nouvelle Aquitaine

The Taste of France at Its Finest

​

​

Bordeaux is more than a city—it is the gateway to a region where wine, food, and lifestyle come together in perfect harmony. Strolling its elegant boulevards, pausing at lively squares, or visiting the Cité du Vin, you feel immediately that this is the capital of French art de vivre.

​

Surrounding the city, legendary wine châteaux stretch across rolling vineyards, producing some of the most celebrated vintages in the world. Here, tasting a glass of Bordeaux is not just about wine—it is about heritage, patience, and the pleasure of sharing.

​

The region also offers flavors shaped by land and sea: fresh oysters from Arcachon Bay, the bold and spicy spirit of Basque cuisine, and markets filled with foie gras, truffles, and cheeses that capture the richness of the southwest.

​

Beyond the table, Nouvelle-Aquitaine is home to icons that have long inspired travelers: the surf and style of Biarritz, the towering sands of the Dune du Pilat, and the ancient wonders of the Dordogne caves, where humanity’s first art still speaks.

​

Bordeaux is very well connected, especially to Paris—just 2 hours by high-speed train, around 1 hour by plane, or a 6-hour drive—making it easy to reach.

​

This is not a region to rush through—it is a place to savor, to linger, and to let each glass, each dish, and each landscape tell its story. In Bordeaux and Nouvelle-Aquitaine, epicurean pleasures are not an indulgence—they are a way of life.
