Old Grapes make Great Wine

Older vines create some of the best wines in the world. In almost all examples, expensive, limited, and highly acclaimed wines come from older vines. However, not all old vine juice is pricey. The older the vine the less grapes it produces. This is why many growers focusing on volume, rather than quality will tear up the older vines.
      The older the vine, the more complex the resulting wine. A producer who preserves and cultivates older vines will often mention this on the label. Europeans are notorious for not giving much information about a wine. More and more are starting to accommodate curious Americans by letting us know when the vines are old. In some growing regions of Europe, it was illegal to say the vines are old, but this is changing.

Here is the term 'old vine' in few languages.
Vieille Vigne - French
alte Reben - German,
Vigna Vecchia - Italian,
Vinha Velha - Portugese,
Viejo or Vieja - Spain

There is no government over sight in the use of the term old vine on domestic bottles. Read the label, ask the wine store salesman if you are not sure. Vines might be considered old at 40. Vines can live as long as a human or longer. There are some wines made from 100 year old vines at reasonable prices. You just have to seek them out.
      There are many old vine examples from our domestic market too. Look to zinfandel, carignan, and mourvedre. These grapes have been preserved, while many producers have pulled up their old sluggish vines to plant younger, more vigorous vines. These three grapes were used as field blends and can often be found blended together. Old vine white wines are more scarce, but the examples are stunning.
