Walk into many wine stores and you will see the bottles organized by country of origin. Occasionally this will be further subdivided by varietal or, more commonly, by the color of the wine. Since many European winemaking countries refrain from listing the types of grapes utilized on the label, the result is that the cabernet sauvignon-based Bordeaux may be sharing space with pinot noir from Burgundy which is next to a bunch of red Rhones containing syrah.
