Construction
Architects
The architects were Anouk Legendre and Nicholas Desmazières of XTU Agency.
Cost
The cost of the construction has been underestimated. In January 2011, the cost of the construction had been estimated at 63 million euros excluding taxes.[2] But at the end of 2014, as the construction was in progress, the cost of the structure has been re-evaluated to reach 81.1 million euros excluding taxes.[2]
History and opening
The project for a wine cultural and tourist center started in 2009. An association prefiguring La Cité du Vin was created for this purpose, made up of the Aquitaine region, Bordeaux Métropole, the city of Bordeaux, the Interprofessional Council of Bordeaux wine and the Bordeaux Chamber of Commerce and Industry.[3]
Its official opening by the President of France François Hollande and Alain Juppé took place on May 31, 2016.[4] It was followed by the public opening on June 1, 2016.[5]
Transportation
The Cité du Vin is accessible by tram (the Cité du Vin tram stop is on line B of the Bordeaux tramway), by the ring road, by the Pont Jacques Chaban-Delmas and by lines 7 and 32 of the Transports Bordeaux Métropole (TBM) network. A stop of the Batcub is located nearby.
