About France
France is the spiritual home of wine, with viticultural history spanning over 2,000 years. From Champagne's chalky slopes to Bordeaux's gravelly soils and Burgundy's limestone terroir, French wine regions have set the global standard for quality and complexity. The concept of terroir—the unique combination of soil, climate, and tradition—was born here.
