 　　France considers itself the world's center of wine but there may be some red faces in Burgundy today-because a study provides more evidence that techniques for turning grapes into a glass of wine may have come over what today is Italy. The research is in the Proceeding of National Academy of Sciences. Archaeologists have found containers called amphoras, at sites along the French coast. The 2500-year-old vessels charactertics of wine bottles used by E in what's now Italy. But did these amphoras actually contained wine? Researchers looked at 13 E amphoras that had been excavated in a hole in the French coastal town of L, an ancient import-export center. They also examined a limestone platform that looked to have been a wine of olive press. Based on chemical analysis, it's likely that anphoras contained wine and press did not start being used on grapes until decades after the amphoras arrived. These artifacts implied that the Gallic Locals first had their wine ship in and later began the development of their own wine-making-techniques-probably using wines also transplanted into the area. Looks like French wine, like Napoleonm, is really an Italian import.
