France
France, the birthplace of fine wine, remains the benchmark for quality and tradition - home to some of the most highly sought after and ageworthy wines in the World. Bordeaux is famed for its structured, age-worthy blends of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, while Burgundy offers some of the world’s most elegant, precise, terroir-driven Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Champagne is home to the world’s most celebrated sparkling wines, crafted from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Meunier - synonymous with celebration and with the ability to develop deliciously toasty, nutty complexity with age. The Loire Valley offers exceptional crisp, mineral Sauvignon Blanc and Chenin Blanc but also elegant reds from Cabernet Franc and Pinot Noir. The Rhône Valley adds further diversity, with powerful Syrah in the north and rich Grenache-based blends in the south. Beyond these classic regions, Languedoc offers excellent value, while Provence is synonymous with fresh, pale rosé - perfect for a sun soaked afternoon.
