The Gironde has Bordeaux at its centre and includes the departments of Medoc, Bassin d'Arcachon, Sud Gironde, Haute Gironde, Grand Libournais and Entre-deux-Mers. A wine-growing region of worldwide reputation, the vineyards of Bordeaux produce many excellent wines including Margaux, Medoc, Sauterne, and Saint-Emilion. Gironde abounds with time-honored recipes and new cuisine, with local specialties like truffles and foie gras to whet the appetite of the gourmet. This region has wide-open spaces, including Europe's largest forest, and offers a long list of outdoor activities. The number and quality of its golf courses has made it France's leading region for golfers. For those interested in architecture and archaeology there are outstanding finds at Lascaux, La Madeleine, and Rouffignac, the abbeys, fortresses, and chateaux, and the Gallo-Roman remains.
