Appellation:
Vin de France

The Vin de France classification is the lowest in the three-tier hierarchy of French wine classifications. The others being Indication Géographique Protégée (IGP) and Appellation d'Origine Protégée/Controllée (AOP/AOC). It replaced the previous designation vin de table ("table wine") in 2009. Strictly speaking, vin de France is no appellation but a designation. It allows greater flexibility in the production of wines compared to the higher-quality classifications.

Not to be confused with Vin de Pays, which is the former term for IGP wines.
