Travel Talk: Middle Europe: 2: Aquitaine and the Port of Bordeaux
M. Vignon
Last week M. Stephen told listeners about the Breton Fishermen; today M. Vignon is to take them farther south, to the Department of Gironde, in the old Province of Aquitaine, where the city of Bordeaux is a flourishing port on the River Garonne. Many listeners may have heard of Bordeaux wines, of Medoc clarets, of a white wine called Sauterne. These, and others, are all made from grapes gathered in this district, and shipped from the port of Bordeaux to the world.
