Bordeaux is France’s largest wine growing region with vineyards covering a massive area of 4800 hectares. Red Bordeaux is a red wine that is always made from blending cabernet sauvignon and merlot together.
When you are tasting the reds it will be the balance of these two wines that bring out the distinctive taste of each estate, and a lot of that is based on their location near the Gironde estuary.
Painting is an ancient medium and even with the introduction of photography, film and digital technology, it still has remained a persistent mode of expression. So many paintings have been limned over dozens of millennia that only a relatively small percentage of them could be construed as "timeless classics" that have become familiar to the public—and not coincidentally produced by some of the most famous artists of all time. We, of course, have our opinion of what makes the grade and we present them here in our list of the best paintings of all time.
