I found this article interesting based off of the effects climate change has had on the wine industry. I always knew that the conditions needed to be precise in order to produce good wine, but I didn’t realize that over time the warming climate made Bordeaux’s “less propitious areas” become less ripe.
I found it very interesting that some people blame the bottom for the widening gap between the top and the bottom and their reasoning is that they do not have wines with big name companies.
It is sad to hear that Bordeaux is facing so many threats, despite the fact that its quality has never been better. It seems that there is a lack of cooperation within the industry itself, highlighted by the fact that many have placed the blame on the producers at the bottom and their issues with promoting a cohesive brand image. It is clear that there are a lot of both internal and external factors contributing to the crisis that Bordeaux is facing today.
