Abstract: |
A Bordeaux wine is any wine produced in the Bordeaux region of France. The French government created the Bordeaux appellation, recognised by the Appellation d'Origine Controlée, in order to grant official status to select agricultural products due to the region's specific terroir and soil. The Conseil Interprofessionnel du Vin de Bordeaux (CIVB) is a French interest group representing nearly 10,000 Bordeaux wine producers and growers and 400 wineries. Facts On July 14 2012 the CIVB registered with the China Trademark Office a geographical indication (GI) collective trademark in Class 33, designating wines. |
