I'll add to this later, but to disagree:

very little wine from the west coast of usa would qualify. huge amount comes from fine vineyards and are mfgd in warehouses.

very little wine from italy would qualify.

the french, in burgundy brought in rhone to make burgundy decent.

the french, in burgundy brought in wine from algers to mislabel

the french in burgundy brought in wine from italy to mislabel

one of the largest burgundy producers served hard time for phony mis en domain bottle labels.

very little burgundy is truly mis en domain, as the plots are way too small.

Bordeaux has no territorial regs. the grapes can come from anywhere within the region. a number of the Bordeaux are bottled off premises.

very little champagn is mid.

many great wines from oz use bought grapes.
