The wine region of Saone-et-Loire

Saône-et-Loire is the PGI title for wines produced in the administrative department of the same name in Southern Burgundy. The department is best known for its AOC classified Vineyards and villages in the Côte Chalonnaise and Mâcon, but the PGI has yet to relax the winemaking laws for producers. That said, the Grape varieties allowed in the PGI laws are definitely Burgundian. Pinot Noir, Gamay and Chardonnay are joined by the lesser known grapes of Auxerrois, Sauvignon Blanc and Caesar.


The wine region of Vin de Pays

Vin de Pays (VDP), the French national equivalent of PGI (Protected Geographical Indication) at the European level, is a quality category of French wines, positioned between Vin de Table (VDT) and Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée (AOC). This layer of the French appellation system was initially introduced in September 1968 by the INAO, the official appellation authority. It underwent several early revisions in the 1970s, followed by substantial changes in September 2000 and again in 2009, when all existing VDT titles were automatically registered with the European Union as PGI. Producers retain the choice of using either the VDP or PGI titles on their labels, or both - in the form "IGP-Vin de Pays".
