Spittoon - New Appellation for Bordeaux?
Proposals to amalgamate 5 existing right bank Bordeaux appellations into a new "Cotes de Bordeaux" AC were originally published last Autumn (see http://www.frenchduck.co.uk/frenchwines.htm). And yet several months later little real progress has been made - there seems to be little sense of urgency amongst the Bordelais, as it will take some time for the new "brand" to gain consumer understanding and appreciation.
