Montravel is a wine-growing region in southwestern France, located in the larger Bordeaux wine region. It is situated on the right bank of the Dole River, just southeast of the town of Bergerac. The region is known for producing both red and white wines, though it predominantly produces reds. Montravel wines received AOC (Appellation d'origine contrôlée) status in 1937, which means that all wines produced in the region must adhere to strict production standards. The region's red wines are typically made from a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes, while the white wines consist primarily of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon grapes.
