AOC

Appellation d Origine Controlee.
A system used to regulate the quality of the best French wines (and which is used for certain foods as well).
The regulations cover yield, location, grape varieties, and alcohol content, and even if all these conditions are met a particular wine may still be rejected by the AOC committee as not being up to standard.
