An Epicurean's Dream Voyage

Welcome to Bordeaux In the corner of southwestern France, the Garonne and Dordogne rivers merge together to form the Gironde Estuary that naturally divides the famous Bordeaux region into Left and Right banks. Bordeaux is the largest and most renown controlled wine region in France, making it an ideal destination for wine lovers. Our new Taste of Bordeaux itinerary makes its highly anticipated debut this month. Guests will experience the ultimate epicurean adventure on this luxurious 7-night cruise that takes them through the wine capital of the world. Along the way you'll discover the most impressive winegrowing areas on both banks and their signature blends. Sip on legendary vintages during  included wine tastings at stunning châteaus and vineyards in Bordeaux's most renowned regions – like St. Émilion and Médoc – and enjoy savory regional cuisine prepared by our award-winning chefs aboard the AmaDolce. Our carefully crafted menus are designed to pair perfectly with Bordeaux wines, complementing every exquisite varietal with a range of unforgettable flavors. Food and wine lovers, your dream vacation has finally come true.       Sauternes Sauternes blends account for a very small amount of the wine production in Bordeaux, but contain a great amount of flavor. These highly sought-after wines are made from various grape varieties, are available in many styles, and achieve a mouthwatering balance of sweet and tart. Their notes of rich honey, peach, apricot and nuts pair wonderfully with savory French cuisine. Bordeaux Wine Labels When you take a look at the wine labels here, something seems to be missing - the type of grape. That's because, in Bordeaux, blends rule the world and the grape variety simply isn't as important as where the grapes are grown. So, rather than being named "Cabernet Sauvignon" or "Merlot," you will find that these wines are named after the château and appellation they come from.       For reservations please contact your Travel Agent For more information please call AmaWaterways at 800.626.0126
