Talk:Appellation d'origine contrôlée

message: Changed title to correct spelling of appellation and add a circumflex to controlee. Wnissen 20:21 May 13, 2003 (UTC)
Hello,
Actually, in French adjectives do not start with a capital letter if they follow a noun. Besides, technical phrases, such as the names of organisations, programmes, and so on, generally and conventionally take only one capital letter (i.e., the first one—but that is not a grammatical rule), such as the French AOC article has it. So, the right spelling is "Appellation d’origine contrôlée" and not "Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée".
I guess this should be corrected.

message: :: Appellation d’origine contrôlée (AOC), which translates as "term of controlled origin"
I'd have guessed it was more like "controlled term of origin".  Could someone whose grasp of French is better than mine comment? Michael Hardy 00:16, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

message: Since the Appellation d'origine protegee is issued from the EU rather than France, it probably deserves its own article with a link to the AOC article.  Right now it is just set up as a redirect from AOP to AOC.  Thoughts?

replies: text: Actually, there is an article on the general EU concept. The French language term Appellation d'origine protegee (AOP) corresponds to the English language term Protected Designation of Origin, which is covered together with a few similar terms in Protected Geographical Status. However, there will be a need to somehow cover the AOP term in French since France is currently preparing to change their terminology from AOC to AOP during 2010, although we will also continue to see bottles with AOC terminology on the market for quite some time.

message: Article reads There are eight certified varietals of Corsican honey: Printemps, Maquis de printemps, Miellats du maquis, Châtaigneraie, Maquis d'été, and Maquis d'automne. (Literally: spring, spring scrub, scrub honeydew, chestnut grove, summer scrub, autumn scrub... using spring as the season and scrub in the sense of Australian English bush, I'm struggling to find a good English word for it...) anyhow, point is that's only six... fr:Miel#Les miels AOP lists the same six.

message: "Similarly, Germany's Qualitätswein bestimmter Anbaugebiete is a wine classification system based on geographic region, but it differs from the AOC in important ways. Qualitätswein bestimmter Anbaugebiete wines are commonly seen as less prestigious than Qualitätswein mit Prädikat, making it more similar to the Vin de Pays or Vin Délimité de Qualité Supérieure systems."
Following a reform of EU wine law in 2012, this category is now only called "Qualitätswein".https://www.germanwines.de/knowledge/quality-standards/quality-categories/ Also, I'm not so sure if it is really still seen as less prestigious. Because the German wine classification system is a mess, Qualitätswein mit Prädikat is mostly used for sweet wines. Top-producers of dry wine will mostly rely on the classification of the VDP and not use a Prädikat, meaning that many of Germany's best and most well-known wines are labelled as Qualitätswein. 20useruser19 (talk) 15:35, 17 October 2019 (UTC)
