France is one of the world’s most important wine-producing countries. It’s home to a diverse variety of grapes: Cabernet Sauvignon in Bordeaux, Chardonnay in Bourgogne and Champagne, Syrah in Rhône, and Sauvignon blanc in Loire and Bordeaux. The diversity of France’s grapes is due in part to its range of climate and terroir, resulting in the production of delicious bottles of wine.
