Riches and Romance From Frances Wine Harvest September is harvest time.And with bunches of grapes swingingin the wind,the vineyards of southern France are getting ready to celebrate it. French wine-making began more than 2,500 years ago.The worlds oldest type of vine grows in France and always produces a good quality wine.Today France produces one-fifth of the worlds wine,and some of the most famous varieties. Wine is made from the juice of freshly picked grapes.It is the sugars that turn into alcohol. Each wine producing region has its own character,based on its type of grapes and soil. The drink has always been linked with riches,romance and nobleness.Yet the French think of it in more ordinary terms. All its links are with times when people are at their best;with relaxation,happiness,long slow meals and the free flow of ideas, wrote wine expert Hugh Johnson.
