How would I get from Paris, France to Bordeaux, France?

I am going to France next week and would like to go to Bordeaux for a day. How would I get there? Is Bordeaux better than Champagne, France?
Additional Details
I figure to take the train. But which one? Where? How much?

Yes, the Bordeaux region is more attractive than the Champagne (weather, landscapes) but as Rillifane said it is a bit far for a day trip. If you are looking for a wine region not too far from Paris, Burgundy is a better compromise: very very lovely place and closer than Bordeaux. You could take a train to one of my favorite towns in France: Beaune. It is a 2hr07 trip and can cost as little as 22 euros. There is a 6:58 train on weekdays.

Here is the Beaune tourist office website: http://www.ot-beaune.fr/567000001/home-beaune.htm
If you should visit only one place in Beaune it's got to be the Hospices : http://www.hospices-de-beaune.com/gb/hospices/index.php
Bordeaux is a major city and the vineyards are spread in a large zone and are far from the city center so it wouldn't be easy to get to in a day, whereas Beaune is a smaller town and a very short drive to a lot of vineyards. You can also stay in the town for wine-tasting, it's available everywhere.


Rillifane
Trains leave from the Gare Montparnasse to Bordeaux several times a day. The trip takes a bit over three hours and costs as little as about 45 euros. Given the travel time, Bordeaux is not a smart choice for a daytrip.

You can book online at http://www.raileurope.com/us/rail/fares_schedules/index.htm?WT.mc_id=google.sncf.cpc&WT.srch=1&gclid=COf_hpiknpECFQUalgodmF-cOQ


charlotte
there is only one train company in france so you won't have choice sncf.com you'll find the timetable and fares.
But don't go to bordeaux just for one day stay a couple of days or as millie said go to another place closer than bordeaux.
