A metonymic term encompassing all of the wines produced in the Bordeaux region of
France. These, mostly red, wines are characterized by a
smooth, balanced taste that is largely the result of the blending of the Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot grape varieties, among others. A good starter for those not yet acquainted with the noble
art that is proper wine drinking.
I felt reluctant to try the
new bordeaux bottle advertised in the
store, then I remembered its
quality prevents it from being at all associated with douchebaggery.
