                                                                            UNITED STATES

                                                    United States, when you think of wine in this country,

                                        California, is the first state that comes to mind.  California produces

                                        about 90% of all wines in the U.S., if it were a nation, it would be

                                        the fourth largest producer in the world.  One could say, that

                                        California has inspired a nation of quality wine making.  Though

                                        probably not the first state to make wine, it receives plenty of

                                        accolades and attention.  The fact is wine is produced in all 50

                                        states.  States that are in contention with California for the number

                                        one spot are: Washington, Oregon and New York.

                                                    These states have made a very good name for themselves

                                        in the wine world.  As we move forward into the future, be on the look

                                        out for states such as Ohio, Michigan, Texas, Virginia, Arizona,

                                        New Mexico and the list continues to grow.  The wine system in

                                        the United States to identify wine growing areas is called the AVA,

                                        American Viticultural Area.  Like European systems, it has rules and

                                        regulations for established wine growing areas.  Unlike the European

                                        system, it's not as strict with micro regulations and historical boundries.

                                        To date, there are over 2200 wineries in the U.S. and growing.

                                                    Canada, you will be happy to know that wine is now produced

                                        and imported into the United States with great reviews.  Although

                                        Canada is not U.S. territory, I thought it would be okay to include

                                        it here, since it is connected.  Now, once an area that grew mainly

                                        French Hybrid grapes.  The Canadians have figured out how to grow

                                        the classic wine grapes on their soil.  They've even taken it a step further

                                        by taking advantage of their climate and now produce Icewine.  Canadians

                                        regulation wine system is called VQA, which stands for Vintner Quality

                                        Alliance.  It's purpose is to distinguish quality wine from wines simply

                                        labeled product of Canada.  It also regulates the standards for quality

                                        wine production.  As you can see, the world of wine is never ending.

                                                    Since the beginning of time, wine has continued to reward and

                                        seduce us with the mysterious juice in the bottle.  Below are examples

                                        of wines from this area you can purchase from us.
