January 17, 2010 Bordeaux: One in six in the wine trade

“Bordeaux has 10,000 wine producers, 53 co-operatives, 130 brokers and 400 négociants.  It is estimated that one person in six of the Gironde’s working population is involved in the trade.  Not all wine producers own châteaux, of which there are approximately 5,000 across all the regions of Bordeaux.”

This from Berry Bros. Their site includes lots of great information on the wine industry as well as some great wines.
