What is the Zonda (and how does it impact wine)?2. Which Canadian province produces the most wine?3. Which three of the following wine regions are not in the Americas?a.    Curico Valleyb.    Cerro Chapeuc.    Similkameen Valleyd.    Swan Valleye.    Tecatef.    Casablanca Valleyg.    Mendozah.    Samsoni.    Campo de Borjaj.    Pelee Island4. The oldest winery in the Americas (commercial production started in 1597) is in what country?5. The largest wine company in Chile also.    Gets its name from a title granted by the King of Spain in 1718.    Is listed on the NYSE    Gave up distributing Coca-Cola in Chile because it wasnt profitable enough!    Produces the Casillero del Diablo line of winesWhat company is it?6. Argentina is a nation of immigrants. After the First World War, it was the 8th richest nation in the world before things got off course. It has a rich wine culture that is heavily influenced by Italian traditions (where a majority of its immigrants originally came from). To the closest 10%, what percentage of Argentinas population is of European Ancestry?7. Like the US, Canada also suffered from Prohibition in the first third of the 20th century. However, Canadas version of Prohibition wisely exempted wine from the general ban on alcohol, energizing the countrys nascent wine industry. After Repeal in 1927, the Canadian wine industry languished, producing sweet, alcoholic wines often labeled Sherry or Port. What Ontario producer started Canadas boutique wine revolution in 1974 when it was granted the first commercial winery license since Prohibition?8. The United States is the largest wine producer in the Americas. What nation is number 2?9. Reportedly named for a southern belle and developed in South Carolina, Isabella, a hearty high-yielding grape praised for its disease-resistance, is the most widely planted grape in what South American country?10. Who am I?I am a red vinifera grape variety that plays an important role in two American countries (I am extremely important to ones wine heritage, and more of a background grape to the other). I originally come from Europe and was brought by settlers who speak an unusual language isolate. In the Americas, I am usually plumper and smoother than I am in Europe.Sometimes I am called Harriague, Moustrou, or Bordeleza. I like to play alone, but I can also share as I have been blended with Pinot Noir, Merlot and Cabernet; I am even used in the production of fortified wines. Some people think I might do very well in Virginia, others like the UK researcher Roger Corder think that you would do well to drink my wines if you want to prolong your life.Rodolphe Boulanger is President of The Wine Messenger, an online wine retailer focussed on small grower wines.
