The terror the word strikes in the hearts of the unsuspecting! Terroir is a term everyone likes to throw around these days to seem as though they know what they are doing. It’s simply a French concept for where soil and climate come together at a specific location, making a wine a little bit different from that of their next-door neighbor and completely different from anywhere else in the world.
Grapes can be fickle and the slightest difference in environment can drastically change what’s in your glass. The specific factors can be elusive, but at the end of the day, it’s all about location, location, location.
