As this wine map clearly shows, there are vineyards throughout France; in fact, there is commercial production of wine in every region of France except those along the north coast - Brittany, Normandy, Picardy and the Nord-Pas-de-Calais regions. Generally speaking, the northern vineyards are more reputed for their white wines, the southern vineyards, from Burgundy southwards with the exception of the Jura and Savoy vineyards, for their red wines.
