			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>France is one of the five largest wine producing regions in the world along with the United States, Spain, Italy and Argentina. Within France there are several wine producing regions namely, Alsace, Bordeaux, Burgundy, Corsica, Côtes du Rhone, Languedoc-Roussillon, Loire Valley, Provence and South West. The quality of wine produced may differ greatly from region to region. Although there are many wine producers in each region, there are some wine producers who are regarded as the best in a particular region.</p>
<p>In Bordeaux, Vieux Chateau, Château Haut-Marbuzet, Château de Haux, Château Thieuley, Château Desmirail, Château Faugères, Château Fourcas-Dupré, Château La Tour de By are some of the more popular wine producers. In Provence, some of the popular vineyards are Château de Roquefort, Château Roubine, and Château Calissanne. In Languedoc, Domaine Haut-Lirou, Domaine Coupe-Roses, Domaine du Grand Chemin and Domaine de l&#8217;Hortus are some of the popular producers. In the region of Burgundy, Domaine Laroche, Domaine Jean-Marc Brocard and Domaine Gros Frère et Soeur are some of the popular names in the field of wine production. Château de Chamboureau, Domaine de la Charmoise and Château de Fesles are some of the popular producers of wine in the region of Loire. In southern Rhone, producers such as Chateau de Campuget, Chateau Mont-redon, Clos du Pape and Chateau de Beaucastel are regarded highly.</p>
<p>There are a number of French wine producers all over France and this mention of some of the producers is by no means to be considered as exhaustive. It is merely a small list of the popular names. There are a number of French wine producers in many of the wine producing countries such as the United States and Spain and these producers are also quite highly regarded as far as the quality and taste of the French wine is considered.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Wine, in the old times of France, was made by the peasants for their own consumption. This explains why the French produce and sell some of the best wine vintages in the world. Unlike New World wines that label their products as to what grape variants they&#8217;ve used, Old World French wine is labeled with the location where it was made. By doing so, the French have inadvertently added a romantic note when buying their wine.</p>
<p>Many wine enthusiasts consider French wine as their drink of choice. Most buy different kinds of French wine, so that they may experience and compare differences on tastes, aroma and the wines texture.</p>
<p>With thirteen different regions having thousands of wine producing vineyards, wine enthusiasts are able to enjoy an almost limitless choice of quality French wines. It is said that France has the perfect geographical location for growing grapes, having the perfect soil conditions, and being in close proximity to bodies of water. Add this with the best climate &#8212; a combination of cold winds and a relentless sun, the grapes produced under these conditions are very full bodied with very rich taste.</p>
<p>The availability of French wines range from the most common wine that can be found in retail locations to the more rare variants, which can only be bought by special orders. It is suggested that if you&#8217;re looking for a rare vintage of French wine, try browsing through the Internet.</p>
<p>Although New World wines may prove to use the same methods and ingredients in making wine, and may produce wines that may taste like those made in France, many will say that this doesnâ€™t matter, and nothing will ever match the romance given out by French wines.</p>
