A comparative tasting of the four classic Bordeaux red appellations: Médoc, Pessac-Léognan, Saint-Émilion, and Pomerol. Tannin, oak, and Right-vs-Left-Bank Merlot or Cabernet dominance define every bottle.

Bordeaux has been the centre of French wine commerce since the 12th century, when Eleanor of Aquitaine's marriage to Henry Plantagenet opened the English market. The 1855 classification of the Médoc remains the most influential wine ranking in the world. The wine flight at La Cité du Vin, La Brasserie Bordelaise, and Le Quatrieme Mur is the canonical introduction to the region's appellations.
