Kékoportó grape to change name
The labels kékoportó and kékmedoc can no longer be used outside of the wine regions Port and Medoc.
Previously known as kékoportó, the first bottles of wine sold under the label ?portugieser" will hit the shelves in a few days. The labels kékoportó and kékmedoc, which misleadingly suggest a connection with the Portuguese and French wine regions of Port and Medoc, respectively, can no longer be used outside of these geographical areas. Grown over nearly 1,500 hectares in Hungary, kékoportó is the fourth most popular red grape in the country and is one of the major varieties grown in the southwestern wine region of Villány.
