Traveling to Bordeaux this summer? There’s a fantastic new art exhibit running through the end of August. Eleven different Aquitaine artists have been chosen to have their work showcased at different chateaux from eight different appellations—one artist at each chateau. This new patronage program supports both the region’s artists and wine producers. For more information, visit www.1chateaupour1artiste.org.
