Saint-Emilion, where there is wine

Bordeaux, France is divided by the Gironde River left bank Médoc/Graves/Sauternes right bank Saint-Emilion/Pomerol. The regions are simply divided but the topography is completely different, so different styles of wine are produced. The left bank, which is hot and influenced by the sea breeze, produces blended wines based on Cabernet Sauvignon with strong tannins and gorgeous fruits..   There is no sea, and the soil is clayey, so it is difficult to grow Cabernet Sauvignon, so Merlot and Cabernet Franc are blended. Therefore, a red wine with a softer and rounder shape than the left bank is produced. Saint-Émilion on the right bank has clay soil, so it has been difficult to transport by carriage, etc. since ancient times, so the wine industry has been less developed compared to the left bank where there is a port, and as a result, it is comparatively undervalued compared to the left bank. However, as wine technology and business have developed, right bank wines have also developed noticeably. For example, Paturis in the Pomart region on the right bank... is praised as the best wine in the world.   I found Petrus of the same vintage as my age (....) There were some interesting things to see, such as Chateau Duquem with an incredible price, but because it is a wine 'tourist destination', most of the prices were high. Also, despite being on the right bank, left bank wines were being sold, and the prices were more expensive than in Korea. They are being sold at ridiculously high prices. Even if I go to Bordeaux, France again, I don't think I'll buy wine here. (But I don't know, I might buy it because I feel good lol)   So, if you're going to buy wine, I recommend buying a wine that is one level higher, Grand Cru Classe, or 'Classe'. Of course, this has also been the subject of controversy recently, but at least the quality is guaranteed compared to Grand Cru. The next is Great Vintage, since Bordeaux has a shallow terroir that traditionally produces good quality grapes, it is evaluated as a wine with high potential depending on the vintage. 1995, 1998, 2005, 2009, 2010, 2015, 2016, 7 years are vintages that received high ratings, so I recommend buying wine from those vintages.   #HotPlace#LifeShotPlace
