ヴァン・ド・ペイ
The introduction of the "vins de pays," a classification produced under less stringent regulations than those of an AOC, opened up the Languedoc wine industry to the labeling of varietal wines and the blending of international varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah and Chardonnay. Examples include Vin de pays d'Oc, Vin de pays d'Aude, Vin de pays de l'Hérault, and Vin de Pays du Gard. Winemakers such as Guy Anderson, Thierry Boudinaud and E. &amp; J. Gallo Winery capitalized on this new horizon, producing wines like Fat Bastard and Red Bicyclette.
