The Geography of Wine: How Landscapes, Cultures, Terroir, and the Weather Make a Good Drop

When you think of wine, you might think of the taste or the smell, but it's much more than that. Wine is an indication of both the place it was grown and the people who grew it. Why is it, for instance, that Bordeaux is so ideal for red wines? Why does one area produce killer Rieslings while others knock Chardonnay out of the park? The terroir (the geography of a vineyard) is all important in determining the viticulture vibes all over the world, from Napa Valley to Australia.
