The A.O.C. Bordeaux or Bordeaux générique ("generic Bordeaux") is the most important and best-selling of all the A.O.C.s in the Bordeaux area. All the other A.O.C.s of the Bordeaux region, including the most prestigious, are authorised to produce under this A.O.C. The quality rules and specifications of this A.O.C. are drawn up by the INAO.
The Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée (A.O.C.) appeared in France in the mid-1930s. Its aim was to fight fraud and protect the name of the wine, its characteristics and the specific features linked to a defined terroir.
