Protected Designation of Origin

In the EU, schemes of geographical indications known as Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) and Protected Geographical Indication (PGI), promote and protect names of quality agricultural and food products. Amongst many other products, the names of wines are also protected by these laws.

PDO products are prepared, processed, and produced in a given geographical area, using recognized know-how and therefore acquire unique properties.

PGI products are closely linked to the geographical area in which they are traditionally and at least partially manufactured (prepared, processed OR produced), and have specific qualities attributable to that geographical area, therefore acquiring unique properties. Depending on their geographical breadth, PGI zones are divided into three levels: — Region — District— Area Wines

The PGI Regional Wines constitute the broader, overall level of the PGI wines of Greece.

SOURCESGeorge Skouras from Domaine Skouras and Konstantinos Lazarakis, MW, have provided me with sources and current data. I am very grateful for their contribution.

Greek Ministry of Agriculture, current data sampled during the period 2012 and 2013.New Wines of Greece website"Wine Grapes" by Jancis Robinson, Julia Harding and José Vouillamoz, published in 2012"The Wines of Greece" by Konstantinos Lazarakis, published 1995Data for PGI Region is as of February 2013, source http://bit.ly/greekwinelaw

Data for PGI Districts is as of April 2010, source http://bit.ly/1diLnBS

Great care has been taken to accurately analyze raw data. In some cases, I used my own best judgement. For example, the grape varieties were often named in Greek, without any further information. I suspect that some names that are only known locally were used in the official data. An example would be "Asprovergamo". I have also put Moschofilero and Fileri together in the percentage chart for the most widely planted grape varieties on page 1, but used the breakdown in the index. Both synonyms are used to refer to a group of clones with the same DNA profile. However, Fileri might also refer to a table grape grown in some areas of the Peloponnese.
