Pattern template

==Overview==
~Self explanatory~

==History==
~If this section gets too long then there should be a summary here and separate article created with an appropriate link.~

==Wine regions==
~For smaller countries/regions include some geography/climate/soil details in the article but for larger and more diverse areas (eg France, US, Italy), it is not helpful to go into that much detail.~

==Classification or Appellation system==
~Any unique laws or regulations of the wine that a reader might find of interest. In the future we may want to include a pic of a standard wine label for a visual aid.~

==Grape varieties/wine styles== 
~Countries with excessive large lists or tables should probably be moved to a splinter article. This section should be more of an overview of the grapes and wines that a region is most commonly known for. Ideally more of the detail stuff should be found in the smaller wine region or grape articles themselves.~

==Sources, references, external links, quotations==
~references to sources etc~
