                                                                            FRANCE

                                                    France, with a deep history in food, wine is the perfect

                                         companion in it's story.  But, where do you begin Bordeaux, Loire,

                                         or Champagne.

                                                    No matter how you tell the story, you will begin with the

                                         classic grapes.  Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon,

                                         Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.  It is the foundation for all wine that

                                         we've come to enjoy.  Wines with a rustic and earthy familiarity

                                         by which all wines where once measured.  For most of us, it was

                                         our first introduction to wine, for others, well, they're still trying to

                                         understand or answer the question, What is it?  I'll tell you, it's a

                                         carefully structured system of quality.  Standards that have consistent

                                         and dependable results in wines that some believe would last for

                                         ages.  A history that would be to long to narrate here.

                                                    But all is not lost, the best advice I could give anyone is to

                                         taste from the different regions and understand what makes them

                                         different.  Then compare those wines with wines of the New World.

                                         The answer; difference.  The French believed every wine should

                                          taste of the area from which it was grown.  Be unique and true to

                                          it's Terrior.  Below are samples of wines from this area you can
