法国葡萄酒主要由波尔多，勃艮第，阿尔萨斯，郎多克，香摈产区，卢瓦尔河谷等产区组成。传统酿造来自于手工采摘，木桶陈酿，所有香味来自于天然，这种酒浑厚，酸涩，回味充分悠长，越放越好，一般称为传统酒。为了迎合现代年轻人口味，也有许多酒庄采用机械采摘，不锈钢大桶陈酿，酿造过程添加香精以增加不同口味的香味，这类酒口感柔和无木桶味，香味浓郁，回味平淡，一般称之为流行酒，不能长期存放。

French wine region is made up of Bordeaux, Bourgogne, Alsace, Languedoc, Champion, Loire river valley and etc. The traditional brewing is characterized with manual plucking and wooden barrel brewing. The wine made by this brewing is of  natural fragrance, purity, acidity and acerbity, long aftertaste, the longer storage the better, it is generally called “the traditional wine”. To cater for the tastes of young people, some vineyards also apply mechanical plucking, stainless barrel brewing which adds up  essence to get different flagrance for different tastes. This kind of wine is of softness, without any wooden barrel flavor, dense fragrance, watery aftertaste, not suitable for long time storage, it is generally called “the fashion wine”

葡萄酒的酿造70%取决于天然因素，即葡萄种植的土壤，阳光，水分，温度，葡萄枝的年龄，种植当年的气候的好坏，30%取决于于种植的翻地，修剪，采摘程序，酿酒及养酒程序的传统工艺，因此我们说一种美酒源于天然成自传统。法国葡萄酒最初是修道院为了葡萄酒的种植及酿造工艺的研究而逐步发展的，随着历史及文化的原因带到了世界各地，因此在葡萄酒生产中分为旧世界及新世界之分。 旧世界：泛指法国，德国，意大利，西班牙，葡萄牙等欧洲古老种植地。 新世界：泛指美国，澳大利亚，智利，阿根廷，新西兰，南非等新兴产区。他们的风味既有共同性又存在很强的风格差异。

The brewage of wine is determined 70% by natural factors, such as soil, sunshine, moisture, temperature, age of grapevine, climate of planting year and etc., the other 30% is determined by the traditional craftwork such as digging, pruning, plucking procedure, brewage and wine maintaining procedure and etc, so we say wine comes from nature and is established by tradition. French wine has been developed gradually from initial studying of wine planting and brewing technique in the abbot. As historical and cultural reasons, wine becomes prevalent all over the world. Therefore, wine has two categories, the old world wine and the new world wine. The former refers to those ancient European planting areas in France, Germany, Spain, Portugal and etc. The latter refers to those new planting areas in USA, Australia, Chile, Argentina, New Zealand, S. Africa and etc. They have something common in flavor, but strong difference in style.
