i recall the old days in the port of SETE in France, just down the road a bit. they hd wine cargo vessels for transporting thousands of gallons of cheap languedoc wine. it was used variously to give body to other thinner wines (esp. mainly reds) and what was left was made into vinegar around the world. fast forward 40 years, there is an continuous improvement in the local wines,but still there are some wine container ships... btw , for lovers of this regions very drinkable wines, yields are down almost 40% due to continuous heatwaves this summer.picking was done often by night to pick cool, the vendange was very early, and many domaines hired handpickers to get very grape they could. expect price rises....
