What Is A Wine Appellation?

Appellations are a legally defined area where grapes are grown for making wine and they may also be described as a classification system. They are used all over the world for wine production, but not everyone understands what the word appellation actually means.

Outstanding videos in every respect. Thank you 🙏

[@SimonCT123]

Awesome production. I found this really interesting and easily digestible. Starting an appellation log of my favourites!

[@ELICITE]

Thank you Simon, we are so pleased that you found this video interesting! Great idea, what is your favourite appellation so far?

[@SimonCT123]

Most of what I have taken note of has been travelling around Italy. Borolo, Brunello and Chianti are some of the best I have come across. I am only just beginning my French wine education (as a South African we didn't drink much European wine), so I will be trying everything I can and taking note of the appellations I like.

Great production. I can't stop watching and learning with each video. I saw a mistake about the river banks scene, it's actually inverted. The right bank tag corresponds to Margaux, and that's left bank. Anyway, all videos are spectacular !!!

Awesome video thank you a lot ! May i kindly ask you the name of the first music ? Best, Maxime !

[@ELICITE]

Glad you enjoyed it! The song is called Reflection Space by Alex Arcoleo

sorry it is not chianti the first one, although definitely the second ! - it seems that first law on protection of origin dates from 1655 in Tokaj (Hungary) repeated in 1723 , third comes porto :)
