At the heart of the world's leading producer of fine wines, the Institut des Sciences de la Vigne et du Vin at the University of Bordeaux is a multi-disciplinary, international centre for research, higher education and development to meet the challenges of tomorrow's wine industry.
The Institut des Sciences de la Vigne et du Vin brings together all the teams involved in research, training and technology transfer in the wine industry from a number of partners on the Bordeaux site.
A building covering more than 10,000 m² on the INRAE site in Villenave d'Ornon is home to some of these research teams and more than 600 students.
