Those vineyards have long since succumbed to the pressures of urban density and no longer exist in the twentieth century. Wine has a tendency to spoil, and old wine isn't usually as good as newer wine. It is shipped in barrels and dispensed when it is sold. One goes to the vintner with a bottle and gets it filled. The cork, a refinement to come in the next century, will make the bottling and keeping of wine a rather different matter than it is now.
Wine is commonly drunk with water, the proportions between the two being a matter of personal taste.
It is rare to drink either one unmixed, although the poor have always had to make do with only water. The apple-producing region of France runs from the Bay of Biscay to Normandy. Cider is produced in great quantity in Normandy and is even preferred to wine there. Beer is not common in France except in the northwest around Flandres and in the northeast around Lorraine, near the German states. As a beverage, beer is as old as Sumer and was drunk throughout Charlemagne's empire, although these early beers were not made with hops as we do now.
