Some of the content of this article comes from the merged stubs Alsace AOC and Crémant d'Alsace AOC. Agne ^Cheese/^Wine 07:24, 30 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Object to terminology

Latest comment: 15 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

I must say that I find the terminology of this article incorrect and misleading. Alsace is a wine region. The only real geograhpic subdivisions of Alsace below the whole region, but above village level, are the two départments Haut-Rhin and Bas-Rhin. They don't have that much viticultural meaning (except Haut-Rhine being the home to a larger number of famour producers and Grand cru vineyards), and they share exactly the same three region-wide appellations. None of the AOCs that are the subject of this article are (sub)regions in any meaningful sense of the word. Tomas e (talk) 17:23, 1 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

I have no objection to moving this to AOCs of Alsace then. I was just following the pattern of Bordeaux wine regions. As a project we probably should come up with some set terminology since eventually we'll be organized enough to start merging stub-start articles on AOCs, DO, AVAs and DOCs into larger regional based articles that offer more context for the reader.
