Bordeaux is probably the most well-know wine region in France. Bordeaux counts for one third of the good quality french wine (AOC, crus bourgeois, crus classés). The wines are so good there that a Bordeaux ranking is needed to classify the best of the best. Some of them are universal: Margaux, Yquem, Pétrus, Cheval Blanc, Haut Brion and all the others. The main wine regions are: full-body red wine (pomerol), medium-body red wine (bordeaux aoc), dry white wine ('entre deux mers"), sweet white wine (barsac and sauternes).
The selected hotel is an original project coupled with a rare language. “Seekoo” means iceberg in the Inuit language. The name suggests both the building’s clean lines and the immaculate appearance of its skin. It evokes the changing look of the hotel according to the time of day or night. Rays of sun sparkling on the bay windows, reflecting on the clear or silkscreen glass. Behind this light lies the warmth of an elegant and spiritual decor and the promise of an array of exclusive services.
