Bordeaux, the single biggest fine wine region in the world, produces around 750 million bottles of wine per year. Only around 5% of this wine is from the great chateaux and a great deal of the rest can be pretty unpalatable! However there are a growing number of young vignerons, often located in currently unfashionable appellations such as Lalande de Pomerol, that are producing fantastic wines which are well worth seeking out. After rigorous tasting we were won over by a concise group of them, and these form our everyday Bordeaux section aiming to provide excellent value and consistency from a region where value is not often at the forefront.
