There are many regions that are famed for wine production. I have been taking a course that familiarizes me with a lot of knowledge about wine. I am still in the module 1 part and I am learning about the main wine producing areas in the world. In Africa, everyone knows that South Africa has the most famous vineyards and wineries. I hope I get to visit them someday.
Here is a list of the renowned wine producing areas. There are many countries that are coming up with new wines every time but the most common are .
- France
- Italy
- Spain
- Germany
- Portugal
- Chile/Argentina
- South Africa
- Australia
The most eminent wine producing regions in France are Bordeaux, Burgundy, Alsace, Provence, Rhone Valley, Loire Valley. In Italy it is Tuscany, Veneto, Peidmont, Umbra, Friuli-Venezia Giulia and Trentino-Alto Adige.
Wouldn’t you love to see Kenya on the list? I had a conversation with someone who was telling me that there was a project to plant vineyards in Turkana and the arid regions on Kenya like North Eastern. He claimed that some grape varieties would do well there. What do you think?
