At a time of unprecedented challenges for the Bordeaux wine industry, with a 25% drop in sales and a production surplus of almost 500 million bottles, the Fête du Vin is a beacon of hope and a celebration of the region's resilience. This crisis, marked by a 22% fall in exports and a threefold increase in unsold stocks, has done nothing to dampen the passion and pride of Bordeaux's winegrowers.
Every year, Bordeaux dons its finest finery to celebrate the art and passion of wine at its famous Fête du Vin. This not-to-be-missed event attracts thousands of visitors from the four corners of the globe to celebrate the region's rich wine-growing heritage.
