Brief History of French Wine
France’s legendary status in the world of wine is rooted in its rich history and iconic regions like Bordeaux, Burgundy, and Champagne. Despite facing near devastation from the phylloxera vine louse in the nineteenth century, French vineyards bounced back, thanks to the resilient American rootstock. Bordeaux’s historic classification system, commissioned by Emperor Napoleon III in 1855, still influences the wine world today, while the AOC system ensures the quality and authenticity of French wines.
Though global competition has shifted the market, France remains a beacon of exceptional wine and unforgettable dining experiences, a tradition we’re proud to bring to you at First Choice Cellars.
