The regions in France are basically if you generalize them 7 ( Bordeaux, Champagne, Alsace, Provence, Loire, Burgundy, Rhone) The above are the main areas of production. But there are Cognac, Languedoc- Roussillon, Saroie, Jura & Chablis. That makes us 12 regions. The following link lists more areas ( check the terroir) and gives info about each region and it's wine. en.wikipedia.org/ wiki/ French_wine
