Basically, they're not stuck using only the grapes from their region.. So a Bordeaux can't use grenache or mourvedre or shiraz because they don't grow there, same way a wine from the Rhone region can't use cabernet sauvignon that was grown in Bordeaux.. But a Vin de France wine can mix both and call it a day. So basically, regional wines give you more of a terroir feel, and broader appellations give more freedom to the winemaker to make something different (but you can also make cheap wine that way, because you can just buy whatever grapes and mix it all and ferment it, lots of boxed wines or wines that just say "table wine" are made this way.. You don't really know what's in it most of the time but usually people who buy those don't care about that information.

It's great that Mike enjoyed the wines despite not being a wine drinker at all, and was great at describing what he was tasting. I predict he will give wine a shot at home or in a restaurant now. I am not a beer drinker typically unless I am at a brewery with friends I would always get wine. However if my partner is having beer I would have a taste and there are so many great kinds brewed here in Ontario. Also ciders, spirits, and even sake. Also non-alcoholic options which are decent. And of course beautiful wineries where you can get a flight of what they have to offer to learn more. Funny in wine country you see groups that are staying at bed + breakfasts nearby biking around to tour the vineyards that are pretty close together so that everyone can partake for some fun without driving.

@stone5against12 жыл бұрын
The most important thing to remember about food pairings is to go with a wine that you like over a wine that pairs well with the food. What I mean is.. if you don't like white wine, like, AT ALL, don't go for a white wine just because white goes better with fish, go with a lighter red wine, or a rosé. Or a white for red meat if you don't drink red wine. Or grapes variety. If you don't like sauvignon blancs 'cause they're too acidy or you don't like the herby citrusy flavours, just go for something else. If you go for a wine that pairs well with the food, if you don't like that wine, you won't enjoy the meal as much. Same if you shop the other way around "Oh I really like this red wine but don't eat red meat, but red wine = red meat, right? so I'll buy a steak despite not eating red meat" you won't enjoy the meal as much as if you had cooked something else. (Plus you'll probably burn the steak or overcook it if you never eat red meat :p)

As an Australian who grew up with McLaren Vale, Barossa Valley, & Coonawarra red wines (Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvingnon, etc.), hearing a Grenache/Mourvedre blend wine described as "really rich, indulgent, full bodied" made me chuckle. I highly recommend getting some big Australian, South African, or Californian wines (that have been cellared for at least 10-15 years) to get a lesson. "Vin de France" wines are, in my opinion, a tired/stale French wine-making industry desperately trying to catch up and compete with the other major wine-making countries that have been kicking French arse for 30 years. The French make some wonderful delicate wines, petite & pretty wines, that are excellent with delicate foods. But you have to go elsewhere to get properly full-bodied wines that are life experiences.
