정의

Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée — France's controlled designation of origin.

심층 분석

Established 1935, AOC (now AOP) defines geographic boundaries, permitted grapes, maximum yields, minimum alcohol, and winemaking methods for French wines. The system created the template for wine appellation systems worldwide. There are roughly 360 AOCs in France, from broad regional (Bordeaux) to single-vineyard (Romanée-Conti). AOC guarantees origin and style, not quality.
