Moselle VDQS
Moselle VDQS is a wine classification in the wine industry of France. It is a part of the Vin Délimité de Qualité Supérieure (VDQS) system, which is the second highest classification tier in French wine, just below Appellation d'origine contrôlée (AOC). The Moselle VDQS classification specifically applies to wines produced in the Moselle region of northeastern France.
History[edit | edit source]
The Moselle VDQS was established in 1951, as part of the VDQS system which was created to recognize and control the quality of wines from certain regions. The VDQS system itself was established in 1949, two years prior to the creation of the Moselle VDQS.
Wine Production[edit | edit source]
The Moselle VDQS is known for the production of both white and red wines. The primary grape varieties used in the production of these wines include Pinot noir, Gamay, Auxerrois, and Pinot gris. The region's cool climate and diverse soil types contribute to the unique characteristics of the wines produced here.
Classification System[edit | edit source]
The VDQS classification system, including the Moselle VDQS, is based on strict regulations regarding the production of wine. These regulations cover aspects such as the geographical location of the vineyards, the types of grapes used, the methods of cultivation and wine production, and the minimum alcohol content of the wine.
