What happened
The European Union has supported regulations protecting the Champagne appellation. The Comité Interprofessionnel du Vin de Champagne works to safeguard the name from misuse on unrelated products, such as shoes or toilet paper. Winemakers in the region have legally challenged the appropriation of the Champagne name since the 1840s.

Why it matters
The region's Protected Designation of Origin status, established in 1936, helps define the quality and identity of the sparkling wine. Regulatory support reinforces the exclusivity of the commodity, which strengthens the premium market value of Champagne.
