With global warming seeming to be a certainty over the next 50 years, do you think that traditional wine regions like Bordeaux and Burgundy will just allow their wines to change as the climate changes (eg Bordeaux producing blockbuster Napa style cabs every year) or will wine makers alter their vineyard management and clone selection to try and retain a more elegant style?

Good question. I think they'd do both, to maintain the past that we've grown to love (good luck to that), and allow change to keep up the prospects of a naturally occurring product. I've lived and will again in the Okanogan Valley in British Columbia, Canada and among other great wines they produce ice wine that will undoubtedly be badly affected. Sumac Ridge in Summerland makes an exceptionally good ice wine, Cheers!

Wine makers will adapt to any climate changes.
