The Franconians may not like it, but while I am positive that most foreigners will have heard of Bavaria, I am not so sure if the know where (or what) Franconia is. Wine snobs might be aware of Franconian Silvaner, but even that is not something you would find in British wine stores. So I figured our international readers would find it easier to get to terms with Bavaria. I wonder if the wine Franconians do now grumble...
