I honestly don't know, Canada certainly doesn't belong to "the old world" when it comes to wine and I'm not sure if it belongs to "the new world" either or if it, like my own country, doesn't belong to either. :)

Exactly and who could possibly not want higher quality wine becoming more available and affordable!

Winey* Come on, how could you ever miss such an opportunity?

Yeah and I could have not reddited while working so maybe qt least one of them would have been "executed successfully" :P Have a nice day!

I'm sorry, I confused your username with the guy who called me a dick, that's on me.

If you know I'm old enough to be interested in the agricultural part of winemaking thats pretty much all you need to know :)

I'm explaining why your point is wrong, thats all :)

Sorry mate, I'm not the one using one half of a story to make my point seem more valid, so no, I don't think so. :) All I did was pointing out that the "new world" still applies in a specific context. Then whoever became all defensive about "Europe owing everything to the us" when it comes to wine. I'm sorry, but you clearly haven't read the discussion from the beginning.

I were a dick about it? Did you even read the comment I answered? I merely laid out the entire story instead of the selected part that fit their narrative.

And americas wine industry owes its existence to the thousand years old traditions, knowledge and varieties from europe for existing in the first place, so everyone benefits from not putting themselves on high horses. :)

When talking about wine we still do.. :) The bigger wine producers of Europe are called "the old world" while usa, South America, South Africa and Australia is referred to as "the new world" :)
