We will be arriving at CDG around 11 am, is it reasonable to try to take the train to bordeaux that same day? If so, how do we get to the train station and which train station in Paris is the correct one? will be traveling early Sept.

I didn't check times and you don't have an exact date listed, but there is a SNCF TGV discount service called OUIGO: https://ventes.ouigo.com/en-GB It seemed almost too good to be true, but my daughter and I took one from Strasbourg to Paris last summer and it cost us less than 25 Euros! Have fun!

If your airline and partners (such as Delta/Air France) offer a connecting flight to Bordeaux, that's likely to be the fastest, easiest, cheapest, and best "protected" connection to book all on one ticket.
Charles de Gualle TGV station is in Terminal 2. See Rick's guidebook or www.easycdg.com for more info. A direct TGV from there to Bordeaux departs around 16:15 most days.
For trains departing Paris Montparnasse station, you can take www.lebusdirect.com line 4 directly there, but it takes an hour and a quarter.
