[Talk-GB] Viticultural Areas and Appellations

[Paul Berry]

Hi Clifford,

I think the equivalent is PDO, as explained here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wine_from_the_United_Kingdom#Rules_of_wine_labelling

Could you indicate how this might be tagged? An example English vineyard is
here: https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/232552850 (just don't mention Last
of the Summer Wine).

Regards,
*Paul*
