While You're There

Les Paysages de la Vigne - the Landscapes of the Vine - is the title of a fascinating photographic exhibition which will get you into the mood for vineyard exploration. It proves what wine enthusiasts always maintain: we're not just talking about a drink, but a key aspect of civilisation, traceable in art, music, history, religion. . . Level 1, Hangar 14, Quai des Chartons, in the old wine-oriented centre of Bordeaux, until September 24th. Entrance 38FF; free for children under 10. Open daily 11 a.m.-7.30 p.m. - there's an adjoining terrace restaurant for lunch or snacks, overlooking the Garonne.
