Thanks for your comment. Indeed this issue is very controversial. During the conference I attended, there were many contradictory views and opinions. I don’t mean to hold the final truth but having one foot in Europe and one in the US, I’m always complaining about the fact no varietals are mentioned on European labels and very often no origins are mentioned on new world labels. My dream? Varietal AND region on the label. But is it a guarantee of quality?

I started from the basis that varietal labelling was a threat and came to similar conclusions.
