- America and Canada confuse this system by using some European appellations as generic wine names, as champagne, port, burgundy. In the rest of the world Champagne, for example, can only have been grown and fermented in the Champagne region of France. This practice is being phased out.
I removed the last sentence, because it seemed to relate to French exclusivity over the term Champagne being "phased out", which I'm not sure is true. The sentence should be replaced by something less grammatically vague. --DavidSaff
