FAQs

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

 

Q: Where are you located?

A: Made for Wine is an online showroom. We design the wine maps from our studio in the heart of Berlin.

Q: How can I best use the maps?

A: Let's say you just got our Wine Map of Italy delivered to your home. We're thrilled you chose our product! Now, how can you make the wine tasting both educational and enjoyable?

There are a couple of ways to use our map:

  • LEARNING. You’ve got a bottle in your wine rack that was gifted to you recently. Firstly, check out the label to learn where your wine comes from. You’ll be looking for three key elements: the region, the name of the wine, and the grape type. Great! It’s a nice bottle of Primitivo. “Primitivo” is actually a grape variety and it almost always comes from the Puglia region. Navigate our map to locate Puglia. The darker marked zones will indicate where the Puglia’s vineyards are.
  • EXPLORATION. You may also taste your way through Italy and plan your wine tasting journey just like you'd use a map to work out your holiday itinerary abroad. This is a great way to develop and refine your Italian wine palate! Study the map to discover new wine names and grape varieties we hand-picked. Start your tasting with Toscana and Piedmont (since these two often come up during dinner conversations), then continue your way down to Sicilia, where the newly rediscovered, high-quality wines are cultivated around Etna.

Q: How are the wine maps designed?

A: Collaborating with top cartographers, we use GIS mapping (Geographic Information Systems), as well as the most up-to-date data from local wine-making authorities. The wines on the map are carefully selected to represent the most world-famous wines. We consult leading wine experts and follow viticulture atlases to maintain accuracy. Our maps are updated every 2-3 years.

Q: Do your maps come in other sizes?

A: Currently, all of our maps are 50x70 cm. If you'd like to be the first one to hear about custom sizes and new product launches in the future, follow us on Instagram.

Q: Does my wine map come with the frame?

A: The frame is not included.

 Q: How is my wine map packaged?

A: The map comes to you rolled in a recyclable cardboard tube.
