Bourg, or Bourg-sur-Gironde, was first called Bourg-sur-Garonne and Bourg-sur-Mer. Today, after centuries of evolution of the estuary, it is located on the right bank of the Dordogne river, facing the Médoc. It is a pretty old village, whose origins date back to Antiquity, nestled between a rock face and the river. It is also the capital of a county including fifteen municipalities; and finally, it is a wine region, bounded by the same canton, which gives to the “Côtes de Bourg” C.D.O a unity that is rare in the Bordeaux region.
