I wanted to show the trace back of the varietals from France and Spain break them out by the major general regions (not granular to the AOCs). To compare the more popular global varietals and their corresponding homes in the New World, I tacked on broad-brush grouping of USA, AUS, Chile and Argentina.
Sorry Italians (plus all others), but with your crazy varietals and 20 general wine producing regions, I am avoiding you for now.
