Makers of Bordeaux wines have been told to reduce their output this year by an unprecedented amount because of overproduction and falling prices, the body that controls French winemaking said. |
France's Institut National des Appellations d'Origine instructed growers in most French wine-producing regions to reduce output for the 2005 grape harvest -- but none by as much as Bordeaux.
Bordeaux makers were told to reduce output by about 12 percent.
The new measure concerns "appellation" wines which carry France's AOC seal of origin and quality. | Get more details. | |
