The family became very closely linked with the reputation of the wines of Bordeaux and was instrumental in determining the price of French wine for export. The family also acquired very many Bordeaux châteaux and introduced a proprietary form of vinification. Food pairing: This wine goes particularly well with roast poultry, salads and mature cheeses.
