While many wines of high value and many different varieties available for production regardless of the sector, there are some of the most expensive wines in the world in France, and the vast majority of people unable to live his life.
It can be done, in fact, a wine-Romane Conti wine made from Pinot in Burgundy Black costs more than $ 1,000 a bottle. A rare case of a crop of 12 at auction in London for a staggering 58,500 and if this is where the most expensive wine sold at auction before 2007.
Bordeaux and Burgundy always contested that produce the best wines from their own resources and probably correct, but outside the Champagne region, famous for the sparkling wine of the same name, Bordeaux wines better known by the name of Burgundy.
 Each region of France on holiday, you can have a large selection of wines, and is a good idea, you know that your settings before you try otherwise. If you have a red or white wine dry or sweet, sparkling or even preferred, the choice is enormous.
It's fun to attend a meeting can be a very good taste, taste different varieties, but some choose, maybe a little scary, especially if you arrange a visit, many of them. However, there are some general guidelines that will happen.
When tasting, you should always start with lighter wines such as champagne, and white full-body, then through the red light for the body and ending with dessert wines. This keeps the flavor more delicate, so it can better appreciate each wine and water in some areas in the middle to the taste and texture of the wine to you all.  Need a set of glasses of wine a couple times to lose, to help aerate and give the flavor. It is customary to spit more wine instead of swallowing it, but you can use many opportunities to learn how to swallow after a fall.

For centuries, Bordeaux has a long history and an international reputation for high quality wines and is also a popular place to go was, but it is always good value for wines from Bordeaux, when you travel  outside the region.
And yes, I could not think, as Champagne strict control of what we mean by coming true champion, because some species are considered too expensive to produce in this area for consumption in the world. However, there are vineyards, and even less for a bottle of champagne with the same delicacy of fresh compared to the big brands that we all come to know.
The Languedoc in France, a major growing areas and the prospect of planting more than twice the land of vineyards, the whole of Australia! Although in the past, focused more on quantity rather than quality does not change the situation, one can at a reasonable price, this number may double or even triple the cost of buying wine.
But France is a country with a great variety of wines from many wine regions, and each flavor, aroma and body like no other, and in some regions offer such diversity, the unthinkable, but an exciting experience.
Obviously, wine is always linked with fish and chicken, while red wine is usually associated with red meat and game.
