香槟这名字不是你想叫就能叫：法国烧毁3.5万瓶气泡饮料
克日，约3.5万瓶气泡饮料在法国被烧毁，缘故是它们以“香槟”自居。“香槟”是一个受保护的自用称呼，仅有法国香槟地区消费的气泡葡萄酒才干被称作“香槟”。

The name is designated under France's Appellation d'Origine Contr?lée (AOC) system, which is supposed to give them exclusive use of the word in countries that follow EU laws on distinctive geographical indications.
“香槟”是法国原产地定名控制体系指定的自用称呼，只需是恪守欧盟关于独专程域标志的执法的国度都不克不及滥用自用称呼。
There are currently more than 121 countries that follow the ruling on the use of the name, according to the Champagne trade association.

2022年10月，巴黎的一家法院做出判决，以为这批饮料应被烧毁，由于它们侵占了法国原产地定名控制体系的划定。

香槟委员会会长查尔斯·高梅尔表现，烧毁这批饮料重申了这一划定的紧张性。
"This kind of use contributes to weakening the reputation of the appellation," he said. "The fight against the abuse of the Champagne name started in 1844 and hasn't stopped since."
他说：“这种滥用称呼的举动侵害了称呼的名誉。反对滥用香槟称呼的争斗从1844年就开头了，不休没有中止过。”
