FACTS ABOUT WINE When wine and food are paired together, they have a “synergy” or a third flavor beyond what either the food or drink offers alone. Wine grapes rank #1 among the world’s fruit crops in terms of acres planted. Not all wines improve with time. In fact, a vast majority are produced ready to drink and do not have much potential for aging. Only a rare few will last longer than a decade. One bottle of wine contains about 2.8 pounds of grapes. Champagne, one of the world’s greatest sparkling wines was not discover or invented by the Benedictine Monk, Dom Pierre Perignon, as popularly believed. Some of his principles and processes though, are still being used today. He claimed that drinking the bubbly wine was like “drinking the stars”. Women are typically better wine testers than men because their sense of smell is better. Wine testing is essentially wine smelling. California is the fourth-largest wine producer in the world after France, Italy and Spain.
