Together they account for around 30 percent of the country's wine output.
There are also 52 smaller PDOs (equivalent to a French AOP) but only a small fraction are used with any regularity. However a wide number of traditional (pre 2007) subregions remain in use by producers.

The PGI zone covers the Central part of the Danube plain on the southern bank of the river.
