From: http://www.wine.com/aboutwine/basics/types.asp?class=1&varietal=35

"Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot. These five red grapes are the components of a Bordeaux Blend."

From: http://www.wine.com/aboutwine/basics/appellations.asp?region=11587

"Bordeaux is most often separated into two parts –the right bank and the left bank. On the left bank, Cabernet Sauvignon rules, and the Médoc region hugs the west side of the Gironde river. Within the Médoc are the four top communes of (from north to south) St.-Estèphe, Paulliac, St.-Julien and Margaux. These communes make some pretty sought-after red wines. Below the Médoc, following the river as it turns, lies the Graves region. Named as such for its gravelly soils, Graves is home to some top white wine regions like Pessac-Léognan (for dry whites) and the sweet wine regions of Sauternes and Barsac.

The right bank of Bordeaux is where Merlot and Cabernet Franc shine best. Merlot is typically used more in the blends, particularly in the surrounding satellite regions of Bordeaux. The heart of the right bank is the city of St.-Émilion and the wine region that surrounds it. Next door is Pomerol, a small but intense red wine producer. Other areas include Côtes du Bourg & Côtes du Blaye, Fronsac & Canon-Fronsac, and Côtes de Castillon . Bordeaux has other regions that are making wine – some of it great value! "

Bordeaux is a port city in the south-west of France, with 925,253 inhabitants in the metropolitan area at the 1999 census. It is the capital of the Aquitaine région, as well as the préfecture (administrative capital) of the Gironde département. Its inhabitants are called Bordelais.

Bordeaux wine draws its name from the city around which it has been produced since the 8th century. Thus the city is known as the world's wine capital, hosting the wine industry's biggest event: Vinexpo.

Bordeaux is the centre of much military, space and aeronautics research and construction.

With almost 100,000 students, the city's university is renowned for its research units in crop science, new materials and nanotechnology

I think you mean Bordeaux in France. Are you asking what city it's made IN - since it's made in lots of places now? That would be a very long list.

Do you read over your questions before you hit enter? Somehow I think this was an attempt at humor.

Ask "where did Cheddar originate" for your next one. Or edam, champagne, etc.
