What is a Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) wine?

The European Union ensures the quality of its products through  a set of  strict requirements and regulations, guaranteeing the standards of all European agricultural products and manufacturing processes.

The EU definition of a Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) product is one closely linked to the geographical area in which it is produced, processed or prepared, and has specific qualities distinctive of that specific geographical area.

Thus, when enjoying a PGI wine, you know that you are enjoying a high quality product, traceable to a specific area of production, produced with the highest standards throughout all stages of its vinification.
