The Country is possibly the most important information to know about a wine. From there you can narrow down the possible grapes used in the wine and the geography and climate of the area where the grapes where grown. This information allows you to get a better idea of what the wine may look, smell and taste like. Countries in the cooler wine growing areas, including France and Germany, tend to make sweeter wines, while those in the warmer areas, such as Australia, makes wines with a higher level of alcohol content.
