The Golden Triangle, formed by the allées de Tourny, cours de l’intendance and cours Clemenceau, is the location of Bordeaux’s smartest shops, with designer labels, trendy homeware shops and gourmet food stores, including one of France’s most stunning wine shops.
L’Intendant, 2 allées de Tourny, has thousands of wine bottles stacked around a spiral staircase. Another excellent wine shop is the
Vinothèque de Bordeaux, 8 cours du XXX Juillet.
Running south of this triangle is the city’s main shopping street, the pedestrianized
rue Ste-Catherine. The rue Notre-Dame in the Chartrons district is good for
antiques shops, while the passage St-Michel has interesting junk shops. A daily
flea market is held on the place St-Michel and on Sunday morning a
food and
book market takes places along the quai des Chartons. Opening times of the shops are from Tuesdays to Saturdays 0900 or 1000-1900, some shops still close for lunch from 1230-1400 or 1500.
