A legally defined wine-growing region with specific regulations.

심층 분석

An appellation guarantees that wine comes from a specific place and was made following regional rules. The concept originated in France (AOC) and has been adopted worldwide: DO/DOC (Spain/Italy), AVA (US), GI (Australia). Smaller, more specific appellations generally indicate higher quality potential. Understanding appellations is key to navigating wine labels.
