Look at almost any wine’s label, and you’ll find an indication of its origin, whether it’s as broad as an entire country or as specific as a particular vineyard. That’s because wines embody, and are shaped by, the places they come from—their distinctive combination of geography and climate.

Wine maps are a great tool for understanding wine regions. Each map comes in two versions: one in full detail and one as an outline. Study the detailed map and then see whether you can fill out the blank maps. You can even add the grape variety that is grown there, or any other information you feel is important to your learning.
