The area that can be planted as vineyards in the Champagne
district is rather limited, and as the demand has gone on increa-
sing at a very rapid rate, prices have been forced up, and other
districts of France have tried their hand at making sparkling
wine. Thus we have seen sparkling Burgixndy, sparkling Chablis,
sparkling Saumur — all excellent wines for the prices they are
sold at.

CLARETS— BORDEAUX.
The name of Claret is practically given to all red wine coming
from France, with the exception of Burgundy and Roussillon,
which form small classes apart. The best clarets are those
grown in the Gironde, but there are many other departments
which furnish claret to Bordeaux, to Paris, and to foreign parts.
There is no single district in France capable of producing all
the wine drunk as claret, so the merchant has to buy large
quantities from the Herault, Aude, Gard, Gironde, Charente, Cher,
Burgundy, and Anjou districts. One wine is rich in colour and
body ; another is thin ; a third, like the Charente wine, is
"fresh." These are blended in bond, and make up a very
pleasant, drinkable wine, which has the great advantage of
being moderate in price, principally because it is not the produce
of one single district.
Claret is made in a very simple way. The red grapes are
gathered, taken to the farmhouses, and crushed between two
grooved cylinders.
