The climate change can redraw the world's “wine map”
Over the next three decades, wine production may be reduced into its half in Napa Valley, which is one of the largest wine region of the United States. According to a study of Stanford University, the reason is climate change, resulting in the shrinkage of the growing area of pinot noir, chardonnay and cabernet sauvignon.
The warming is not only bad for California farmers, alarming projections are being made in other wine regions of the world as well. The climate change will redraw the world's “wine map” as well: the most profitable varieties can only be grown in a relatively narrow climatic zone, because they are more sensitive to the changes of temperature – reports MTI, after BBC.
