“It is a reflection of Bordeaux’s forward-thinking approach to wine and wine education. We’re looking forward to developing the app further and delivering it in more languages and markets, making the Bordeaux wine trade a more global place to operate in.”
The app is free to download and is live in English, French and Chinese, with German and Japanese versions to follow in 2018.
