    I’m a bit surprised Italy and France are such big importers of wine. One would think they produce so much wine, they would consume their own.

    I will say California wines are amazing. IMO usually better than French or Italian wines. But maybe I am biased being Californian and having so much exposure to great local wines.

    Maybe we can secede the union and the world can enjoy our wines again 😢

        What east coast wines do you recommend? I’ve had Florida wines before, and they are not so great. Some from Georgia are ok.

      It’s export wine selling on the prestige of the country. They want California wine as much as everyone else.
