No way! There are plenty of domestic wines just as good as anything France has ever produced. The only thing unique about French wine is the arrogance.

My understanding is that most of the grape varieties in France are Californian in origin, due to some sort of a root-fungus that nearly wiped-out the entire domestic French wine industry. Hey, let's bash the French again!

I am reminded of Sept. 11th's immediate aftermath, when a comment by some minor European socialist and duly reported by the lap-dog press, would provoke waves of anti-European hysteria. Naturally, when the truth came out (Italy and Germany come to mind), those hysterics were nowhere to be found.
