I love French Wines
February 23, 2010 on 7:09 am | By admin | In HealthFrequently, when wine comes up in conversation, we often find ourselves discussing where the wine may have originated from.
If you study the label on most bottles, you should be able to find the Country of Origin, such as Chile or Australia. But how often are the regions labelled and how much do we know about what part of a country that wine may have come from?
If you consider how different potatoes, for example, differ from Jersey, in the UK, to say, the Midlands, you will begin to appreciate how much different a grape varietal can taste from region to region. White Burgundy for instance, is one of the better known wines of France and Champagne rarely needs an introduction, but these wines differ greatly, yet are both made by the Chardonnay grape.
There are many wine regions out there to be discovered - several of which make up the many appellations of France.
In days gone by, wine in France was made by the peasants on the land, who drank it themselves. This secret drink was soon discovered by the rest of the population and is now one of the biggest exports in the French economy.
The wine making tradition can be traced back over many centuries in France, which is really no surprise as French wine is now regarded as some of the best in the world, and with some of the most respected producers.
‘New world’ wines, such as Chile and Australia, usually list the ingredients that were used on the label, while French ‘old world’ wines are labelled with the location or region of production. In doing so, I believe that the French have left a bit of a romantic message in their wines, allowing you a bit more of a story and history when you purchase any of their wine.
