The Bordeaux Wine Festival, started seven years ago to mark the 35th anniversary of the sister city partnership between Fukuoka City and Bordeaux, showcases 110 varieties of Bordeaux wines—including red, white, rosé, and Crémant sparkling wines—available by the glass on a pay-as-you-go basis. A highlight of the event is the daily rotation of wines from Bordeaux’s prestigious châteaux. Fukuoka’s beloved eateries offer a selection of steaks, sausages, cheeses, and pizzas. At “Au Bord d’Eau Fukuoka,” a wine bar certified by the Bordeaux Wine Council, attendees can also purchase Bordeaux wines. Enjoy this vibrant early summer outdoor event accompanied by live opera and classical music performances.
