There is not a wine, but different kinds of wine.... This appellation produces a tremendously wide range of wines for the greater delight of consumers everywhere. Each has its own special personality, full of subtle nuances, from the most humble, but nevertheless delicious wines, to the most prestigious growths, which can age for decade.

It is mandatory to buy souveniers here, because it is not a complete journey without one for friends..I bought some for close friends and associates. Most of the items depicts the wine traditions and culture.
