April 3, 2025 — Star Wine List, the award-winning guide to the world’s best wine bars and restaurants, has launched the wine lover’s guide to Bordeaux with new ambassador Florian Valières. The Advanced sommelier has curated a selection of 12 Red Star venues, each offering something different for wine fans visiting the city.

“Bordeaux is very exciting when it comes to wine, winemaking and everything,” says Florian. “I think Bordeaux is coming back to the front [of the wine] scene, where there are so many young winemakers that are trying to do something a bit different and something that excites people – sommeliers as well as guests – and I think that makes Bordeaux such a great place to live. And I’m excited to see what Bordeaux is going to become in the next 10 years. I think there’s a lot of things that are going to happen.”
The new Red Stars include Aux Quatre Coins du Vin, L’Observatoire du Gabriel, Soif and YARRA. Explore the Star Wine List Bordeaux selection on starwinelist.com, or on the app, where you will also find the up-to-date wine lists for many of the restaurants and bars featured.
