\nThe Medoc<\/strong> has a special place in relation to the rest of the territory of the Gironde in the Bordeaux region. \nSurprised this would be to forget that medokskih the vineyard (which represents only a part of the historical and geographical Medoc) extends over an area of more than 80 km long and 10 km wide. Thus, a traveler or a tourist can not only enjoy the huge Vinodelcheskij Chateau of the last century, but really to discover the whole country.\n<\/p>\n \nVery diverse terrain, it offers the look and a flat, monotonous line of the horizon (near Margaux), and beautiful mountains (closer to Pohaku), and finally, a very peculiar Northern, coastal, part of the Medoc.\n<\/p>\n \nThe space used by the appellations of the m\u00e9doc, is an area of about 15 400 ha.\n<\/p>\n \nThe main wealth of the Medoc \u2013 it’s his gravelly soil, sloping soft cliffs to the mouth of the Gironde. Poor in natural fertilizers, the land, topography which contributes to the perfect drainage of water, as if created for the production of quality wines.\n<\/p>\n \nTo distinguish between the Upper Medoc (Haut-m\u00e9doc) \u2013 from Blankety to St Surran de Cabrn, and the Northern Medoc \u2013 from Saint-Germain-d Estey to Saint-Vivien.\n<\/p>\n \nIn the depths of the first zone \u2013 O-m\u00e9doc six communal appellations producing the most famous wines. They include, first and foremost 60 “CRU class\u00e9”, but only five of them have the exclusive right to the name “Haut-m\u00e9doc”. CRU, included in the classification, account for approximately 25% of the total area of the Medoc vineyards, 20% of wine production and more than 40% of cash flow.\n<\/p>\n \nIn addition to the “CRU class\u00e9”, the Medoc has a large number of “CRU bourgeois”, (which require bottling at the Chateau), enjoying an excellent reputation. Many cooperative farms are included in the appellations m\u00e9doc and the Top of the Medoc, as well as three communal appellation.\n<\/p>\n \nThe vineyard of the Medoc stretches from North to South, including the eight AOC.\n<\/p>\n \nThere are two sub-appellations \u2013 m\u00e9doc and Haut-m\u00e9doc (60% medokskih vineyard) and six communal appellations: Saint-Estephe, Pauillac, Saint-Julien, Listrac-m\u00e9doc, Moulis-EN-m\u00e9doc and Margaux (40% medokskih vineyard). General regional appellation is Bordeaux, as in the rest of the Bordeaux vineyard.\n<\/p>\n \nTraditional m\u00e9doc variety, Cabernet Sauvignon is now probably not as widespread as in the old days, but it still accounts for about half of all landings.\n<\/p>\n \nIn second place Merlot (about a third). Produced from it a very flexible wine also has a high quality and the ability to more rapid maturation of what it can be used younger.\n<\/p>\n \nCabernet franc gives the wine delicacy, is 10%. The rest of the landing is the fraction of Petit Verdot and Malbec, which do not play an important role.\n<\/p>\n \nMedokskih wines are exceptionally high reputation, they are among the most prestigious wines of France and around the world. <\/p>\n The whole ensemble medokskih vineyard has the right to the name “m\u00e9doc”, but in practice it is only used in the North of the Peninsula, near Lesparre. Farms located between Blankets and Saint-Seurin-de-Cadarn, use either the name “Haut-m\u00e9doc” or utility name, depending on their location.\n<\/p>\n \nDespite this, the Medoc appellation is the most important.\n<\/p>\n \nThe territory of the appellation Haut-m\u00e9doc original: it goes around the vineyards of communal appellations. In magnitude, this AOC occupies the second place in Bordeaux. His wines have earned a high reputation, partly due to the fact that there are five CRU class\u00e9. In the six communal appellations-enclaves on-site On-Medoc CRU are the rest of the class.\n<\/p>\n \nIn the Medoc classification of wines was held in 1855, nearly a century earlier than in the Graves appellation. This is due to the advanced development of viticulture in m\u00e9doc, which began in the XVIII century, as it was then, with the advent of the concepts of “terroir” and “CRU”, that is, with an awareness of the relationship between the natural environment and the quality of the wine, came the “era of quality”.\n<\/p>\n The Medoc has a special place in relation to the rest of the territory of the Gironde in the Bordeaux region.

\nOn the one hand, a few isolated on the Peninsula, and on the other the wide-open world due to the deep mouth of the river to the Medoc and its inhabitants presented a perfect illustration of Aquitaine temperament, wavering between the tendency to withdraw into themselves and a desire for universalism. And it is not surprising therefore, to find here and the little family are almost unknown hozyayst, and huge featured domains belonging to a rich French or foreign companies.\n<\/p>\n
\nOf Medoc wines are distinguished by their ruby colour, evolving in the direction of the tile shades, as well as its fruity bouquet, in which the spicy notes of Cabernet is often blended with notes of vanilla that brings new oak barrels. Tannic structure of the wine is full and dense, but at the same time, elegant and velvety, as well as their exceptional balance allows a fine condition with aging, they flat out don’t istexas, and only win in olfactory and gustatory richness.

\nMedokskih wines usually have a very intense color. More significant than the wines On-Medoc and wines communal appellations Merlot content, they often have a fruity bouquet and high roundness in the mouth. Some of them (from vineyards located on separate sand and rocky hills) are also greater sophistication and richness of tannins.
\n<\/i><\/p>\nHaut-Medoc (Haut-Medoc)<\/h2>\n
\nThe wine Haut-m\u00e9doc are characterized by generosity, but without excessive power, really subtle fragrance and mainly a good ability to aging. When used after exposure they should be brought to the temperature close to room, and to serve with white meat, domestic or wild bird. If you open these wines are young, they should be served chilled, then they can accompany other dishes, such as some species of fish.
