French wine - enough said.

This is a c. 1970 SOPEXA and Comité national des vins de France map of France and its wine regions. Over a dozen prominent French wine regions are highlighted using different colors, including Champagne, Bordeaux, Côtes-du-Rhone, Val-de-Loire, Côtes-de-Provence, Bourgogne, and Beaujolais. Smaller regions, including Chablis, Jura, and Savoie are labeled as well. Aditionally, the areas where Cognac and Armagnac are distilled appear as well. France's rivers are illustrated and its major cities, such as Paris, Lyon, Bordeaux, Nice, Marseille, and Avignon. A charming illustration of a French vineyard decorates the bottom border.
