“五大名庄”只是历史上的一个说法。

“五大名庄”只是历史上的一个说法。它产生于1855年的分类。只是它只评选了  Medoc 地区的酒庄，连同为 Left Bank 的 Graves 地区的酒庄都不在列， 更不用说在 Right Bank 的 Saint-Emilion.  现在，各个有名的地区都有自己的评选和分类系统。

There are many differences in wine making and labeling between France and USA.  For example, it is commonly regarded that blended wines are of low quality in USA. So the grapes are clearly labeled, like Merlot, Pinot Noir, etc. It is quite different for French. They think it is an art to blend wines from different grapes to achieve perfect tastes, aroma, feels, etc. For example, many of those from Chateau Lafite are a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. 

If you are into Cabernet Sauvignon, choose the wines from Medoc and Graves region in the Left Bank. For Merlot and Cabernet Franc, choose those from Right Bank, like Saint-Emilion. For white wines, try those made of Semillon. It is hard to find them in USA.
