I have used Bordeaux several times on fruit trees and it works well.
I remember reading that there is some trickiness to making the
mixture but I don't remember the details. I was going to make my own
but decided not to. I bought a bag of copper sulfate at the time.
Chemicals are becoming really expensive lately and harder to get.
