Terroir
Beginner Regions & Terroirteh-RWAHR
Definition
The complete natural environment in which wine is produced.
Im Detail
Terroir encompasses soil composition, microclimate, topography, altitude, exposure, drainage, and even surrounding vegetation. The concept holds that great wine expresses its place of origin — that Chambertin tastes different from Musigny because the terroir is different. Terroir is the philosophical foundation of Old World winemaking and the basis for appellation systems.
