		<description><![CDATA[Did you know that by not looking more closely at French wines when you go to the market, you're missing on some of the best tasting wines on the planet? Why do we only stick to our local wines and turn our face away from wines coming from the native country to Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Merlot and other grapes used in making wine in the U.S. and Canada? Is it because we don't know?!]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It has always been so puzzling to me why people in Europe get to enjoy some of the best tasting wines on the planet coming from France, and we tend to stick only to wines that are produced here in North America using the grapes coming from France. Oh yes I know, we have been led to believe that we have some of the best wines here in the U.S., why drink wines from France or Europe?!</p>
<p>Kind of a limited thinking, don&#8217;t you think? Either that, or we just don&#8217;t know what wine to buy! Is it cool to admit that, and try to learn more about other wines too, or no, we don&#8217;t need to admit anything, we have the best wines from California and other regions and that&#8217;s all there is to it?</p>
<p>Do you really believe that? Is that REALLY true?</p>
<p>The unbiased facts are as as follows: Even though we do stumble on to good wines from California, Oregon, Washington and other parts of North America, we have to logically realize that most of these wines produced here in the U.S. and Canada are made with French grapes, pinot noir, cabernet, merlot, syrah, etc. Now if we have chosen to utilize the cepage or the grapes from France to produce wines, which by the way, have completely different taste from the native regions of these grapes due to climate and terrain, then these grapes must be good enough to make wines in their own native regions. Is that a fair assessment? Logically and unbiasedly the answer has to be a yes. If we are sensible and logical people, then would it be fair to say, we also need to examine the wines produced by these grapes in their native land where they first came in to existence. Logically and unbiasedly the answer has to be a yes.</p>
<p>Now, if the above statement makes sense to most of us wine drinkers, then lets put some of these French wines to test and find out for ourselves if they&#8217;re good or not.</p>
<p>Here is a small list of French wines available in our markets that are friendly to our pocket books:</p>
<p>Red: Perrin Reserve(producer) or Parrallele(producer) Cote du Rhone from the Rhone valley, Montagne St. Emillion from Bordeaux</p>
<p>White: Muscadet Sevre et Maine from the Loire valley, Sancerre from the Loire valley</p>
<p>Rose&#8217;: Rose&#8217; d&#8217;Anjou from the Loire valley</p>
<p>Put these wines to test at your own convenience, and please comment on this article. Thank you.</p>
