Bordeaux Town
Hall is inviting all who love good food and wine, culture
and festivals to come and have a great time along the
two kilometre quayside on the banks of the Garonne,
in the very heart of a UNESCO world heritage site.
"BORDEAUX FETE LE
VIN", is moving to the left bank of the river,
between the Pont de Pierre and the Bourse Maritime,
so that the thousands of visitors from home and abroad
can enjoy the 4 day wine festival more than ever. With
the Pass DEGUSTATIONS, visitors can savour
vintage wines from Bordeaux and the surrounding area
all in one place, whereas the Pass VIGNOBLES
takes them out for the day to see the landscapes,
wine-growing estates and heritage of the Gironde and
Aquitaine regions.
Now in its 6th year, "BORDEAUX FETE LE VIN"
has chosen to pay homage this year to SAINT
PETERSBOURG, whose rich culture is famous the world
over. Thus, BORDEAUX
will be honouring its twin town at this year's festival.
Founded by Peter the Great in May 1703, with the aim
of giving Russia "a window onto Europe"...
