Global Warming Brings Better Wine

Posted by timothy on from the where-in-the-cycle-are-we dept.

Makarand writes "According to this article in the SF Chronicle climatologists have a found a link between the warming environment and wine quality. They found that most vintages improved as vineyards' temperatures rose over the past 50 years with the quality improvement more pronounced in the cooler wine-producing regions." I wonder how wine fared during the "Little Ice Age."
