La Cité du Vin

Bordeaux, France

Inaugurated in 2016, the wine museum was set to celebrate wine culture around the globe and educate visitors about winemaking and its history.
The shape of this spectacular building is inspired by the movement of wine when it’s swirling in a glass. It can be seen from afar and uplifts the port of Bassin a Flot, where the museum is located.
This was almost across the street from my hotel, but I didn't go inside. Sounds like it would take half a day to get through it.
I sat across the street and had a glass of wine instead.

swirled to overflowing it would seem...you chose the wiser path in grabbing a wine instead of visiting this place..
