Knowing Exactly Where Your Wine Came From
By Busy Door Guest Blogger | September 12, 2009
There are a great many people who consider themselves as something of a wine connoisseur these days. You cannot blame them for being hooked by some of the wonderful wines out there, and lots of people find they develop it as a hobby without really realizing it. They’ve invested in a vintage collection of wine wines, they’ve converted their spare room into a storage cellar, bought a selection of different wine glasses so that they can get the maximum enjoyment of each wine variety, and have all the necessary tableware gadgets for opening and pouring their wine.
A great many wine enthusiasts don’t actually know much about the actual origins and variations in growing condition of the wines they drink and for that they need a wine map. There have been some big leaps forward in wine map production in recent years and they are now meticulously researched. The California wine map for example is updated every year due to the complicated layout of the area, especially after Napa Valley was officially recognized as an American Viticultural Area in 1981. This news brought the total AVAs in the area up to a staggering 108, which all vary in their wine materials and production.
You could of course just rely on the information on each bottle or the recommendations of friends when buying a bottle, but the true wine expert should know exactly where the grapes came from and why they taste the way they do. If you are lucky enough to be visiting an area of wine production, its is even more imperative that you have a wine map to take with you. There are so many different factors that go into defining a wine’s taste and lots of them overlap between various vineyards and production areas. A wine map will allow you to not only understand the wines better but also identify where the tastes and aromas coming from your wine glasses originated
