Which one of the following is a French labelling term used to indicate a wine with a protected designation of origin (PDO)?

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The question asks: Which option is a French labelling term used to indicate a wine with a protected designation of origin (PDO)?

Option a: 'a. Qualitätswein' — This is a German wine classification (Quality wine without Prädikat) and has no French origin. It does not represent a French PDO term.

Option b: 'b. Appellation d'origine contrôlée' — This is the French term abbreviated as AOC, literally translating to 'controlled designation of origin.' It is the classic French PDO labeling used to certify wine (and other products) with a recognized terroir and quality standards in France. This matches the description in the question.

Option c: 'c. Denominaciones de Origen Protegidas' — This is Spanish for 'Protected Denomination of Origins' and refers to a Spanish/European PDO concept but is not French in origin. It is not the French labeling term the question seeks.

Option d: 'd. Denominazione di Origine Controllata' — This is Italian for 'Controlled Designation of Origin' and is used in Italy as a DOC label. It is not French.

In summary, only the French term that designates a wine with PDO is Appellation d'origine contrôlée, while the other options belong to German, Spanish, or Italian official classifications and do not fit the French PDO labeling term.
