What's the difference???

this is so enlightening. one question had been on my mind since reading the first message on this topic, and foodie promptly answered it. the Q was: why would american producers name their wines after European places?? if one were to believe the argument of your Finger lakes friend, then it is an assumption that each place produces wine in a uniquely different way, right? if this is the case, and American producers want to use place names without misleading the public, they should have appended "method" (e.g. Chablis method)on their labels. corny, but at least truthful.
