Despite my inclusionist tendencies, after much consideration I think submitting this article for AfD is the best route. This article is a clear essay in violation of WP:NOT. The uses of it sources amount to synthesis and (like most essays) is original research. Furthermore, the topic matter itself (and its POV issues) can be better addressed within the respective French Wine, Bordeaux Wine and Globalization of wine articles. After reviewing the article with other members of the Wikipedia Wine Project, we have found little value worth salvaging and merging from this article that wouldn't already be tainted with POV or original research.
