France

A French Chateau - French Wines

View wines from specific regions:

View popular grape types:

France is the world’s largest wine-producing country, and its rich winemaking history dates back at least to the 6th century BC, when Greek immigrants founded the colony of Massalia (present-day Marseille) and introduced viticulture to the area. That trade was later taken over by the Roman Empire, which planted vineyards throughout France. During the Middle Ages, monks were largely responsible for preserving the country’s winemaking tradition, and by the 1800s France was one of the world’s most prestigious producers. But the industry was ravaged by the phylloxera plague of the mid-19th century, an economic downturn and two World Wars. It was not until the 1970s that wines sales started to boom again and France once again became the international wine powerhouse we know today.

Many of the grapes used in winemaking throughout the world originated in France, including Cabernet Sauvignon, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Sparkling wine was invented in Champagne, one of the country’s iconic wine regions along with Bordeaux (home to Cabernet Sauvignon and Sauvignon Blanc), Burgundy (Chardonnay and Pinot Noir), Alsace (Gewürztraminer and Riesling), the Loire Valley (Sauvignon Blanc and Chenin Blanc) and the Rhône (Syrah and Grenache).

White Wine

White Wines

Top white wine varietals:

There are many varieties of white wines on the market with flavors ranging from dry to sweet based on their sugar content. These wines are lighter-bodied than their red counterparts, but nonetheless can possess outstanding depth and complexity of flavor. Generally, white wines pair best with lighter foods like seafood and pasta, which don't overwhelm their delicate flavors.

Chardonnays, the most popular white wines in the world, often have hints of fruits, nuts, and other flavor notes, with medium to high acidity. They may or may not also have an oak taste depending on the containers used in fermentation. Rieslings, a popular grape grown most successfully in Germany, France's Alsace region, and New York's Finger Lakes region, often have flowery, fruity flavor notes and aromas. The crisp acidity of Sauvignon Blanc makes it the perfect refreshment on a hot summer day, and the versatile Pinot Grigio grape pairs easily with many different foods. Some other popular whites include Gewürztraminers, Moscatos, Chenin Blancs, and Viogniers.

One misconception of white wines is that they're only made from white or green grapes. While that's usually the case, that's not always the case. A wine develops its color based on how long the winemaker leaves the skins of the grapes (where the pigment is contained) on during the fermentation process. So, there are a few white wines that are actually made with red/purple/black grapes.
