Bordeaux – two different wine museums

Bordeaux, July 22nd 2024

As this is a tour to learn about the Bordeaux wine region I went to two different museums today. The first one was Bordeaux Wine and Trade museum, focusing on the origins and evolution of the wine trade in the region, as well as on the wine production.

Old wine merchant registers
Two cases to Bergen
Barrel making tools
For label printing

The other museum was the main museum cité du Vin which is a big museum covering the global industry. A truly interactive and modern museum.

A characteristic building
Virtual stomping of the grapes
Big table where you could smell aromas found in the wine
Multimedia dinner table
Dioramas with wine in art
First wine growers

Two very different museums, giving both a local and a global perspective on the wine industry.
