[@Ruirspirul]

yes! not enough information about France wine regions! thank you for filling the gaps and educated the world!

[@winefolly]

You got it! I hope I did them justice!

[@Ruirspirul]

@ i was been sarcastic.

[@piotrlukosik7489]

Another adorable and informative video ❤Thank you!

[@winefolly]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@eric644]

Great tutorial! I was just in Paris and had many of these varietals- extraordinary! 🎉🇫🇷

[@winefolly]

wow that sounds like a delightful adventure!

[@daver8521]

I am about to order my Christmas wine. I'll get two bottles ; a Champagne and a good Bordeaux.

[@winefolly]

yum yum yum! Any favorites from BDX? (omg the 2020s are lit!)

[@jayg0001]

Great video! I would've guessed that Sauternes, Châteauneuf-du-Pape or even Beaujolais would be considered more "famous" than Cahors or Meursault

[@winefolly]

You’re right! I’m just showing the most widely emulated wines that have french-origin grapes. CdP has a foundation in Garnacha which has been proven to be from the Iberian peninsula 🇪🇸

[@lamborghiniregistry]

Always my favorites

[@winefolly]

that would be a stellar line up actually.

Even though I'm pretty good wine wise this was a useful reminder, and also a good xmas prompt for some wimes I don't normally buy, like Merlot( yes, I'll be watching Sideways over xmas)😀

"For less expensive Chablis style wines go to Macon"... Petit Chablis be like d'awww :(

[@winefolly]

Awe! You're so right! Petit Chablis is nummers! Priced very similarly to Macon wines.

0:45: I thought Syrah (Shiraz) originated in Persia (present day Iran).

[@winefolly]

That’s very astute! This was a longtime theory that was disproven with DNA analysis.

I have tested a lot of wines as my father is a wine importer. Without being snobbish I can honestly say that France makes some of the best wines in the world. The new world wines can be good, but almost never reach this level. But unfortunately the market is well aware of this so you pay ridiculous money for the most famous French wines. 😂 Blame rich people who pay for the brand, and who mix it with coca cola….

[@winefolly]

Based on what you said at the end, I really do believe your dad is a wine importer. It sounds like you've seen a lot!

[@kenzeo]

Almost never means sometimes they do. Even blind judges by the top French judges. See 'The Judgement Of Paris', 1976 I believe. Year after year for sometime many countries are represented in the top 10. France is not the only country with sun and dirt. Additionally, many French winemakers have been working abroad and training abroad for decades, so there's that.

[@kenzeo]

Aside from that, I have been disappointed paying up for French wines, just as much as I have been disappointed paying up for wines from other regions. The game is global, plain and simple.

Hey hey hey don't forget Canada. Niagara region is kicking a** in cool climate chardonnay.

[@winefolly]

It certainly does

[@laerteoliveira6147]

Question of taste ; red ones i prefere italians

[@KOLN555]

7=6?

[@winefolly]

Do you mean the nine regional wines include 3 crafted of Chardonnay? Is that what you are expressing? Not sure what this means.

[@KOLN555]

@@winefolly 0:38 "Did you know that of the top 10 grape varieties planted worldwide, 7 originate from France?" Proceeds to list 6 French grape varieties in the list. Malbec is later mentioned in the video to round out 7 French grape varieties, but isn't one of the top 10.

I am a simple man, if I see “Grand vin de Bordeaux” on the bottle, I buy it. If I see “made in china,” I curse. If I see “Chateau Mouton Rothschild” - then I know I am daydreaming.

[@winefolly]

Yeah, that's like seeing a Ferrari Monza SP1 in the wild.

[@Alix777.]

"Sauvignon BlanK" 😢

[@winefolly]

Yes sad face indeed. I can't help but enunciate all the consonants in "blanc." Otherwise the "c" feels left out.

[@fredericperrin3279]

@@winefolly Well it is supposed to be left out!

[@TomCotton-p6y]

I mean this full must have been a school teacher cuz when you're taping stuff up on a wall it looks like a chalkboard listen go back to your basement and stop talking about wine this is amateur night😅😅😂

[@TheyMostlyComeAtNight]

A wine channel troll. Too much!

[@winefolly]

I wish! But they don't let wine into classrooms because then y'all kiddos would never learn how to spell :)
