 WAIS Document Retrieval
These synonyms, such as ``Fume blanc'' (a synonym for Sauvignon blanc), would be acceptable designations for wine as long as they appeared in direct conjunction with an appellation of origin on a wine label.
The AVA stated that Fume blanc has gained wide consumer acceptance, but that allowing ``Fume'' to be used with other grape varieties would lead to unintended consumer confusion with Fume blanc.
Thus, these grapes are improperly identified; moreover, the use of the name Pinot blanc for Melon grapes is misleading to consumers since the true Pinot blanc grape is now grown in the United States and is used to label varietal wines.

 Spirits and Liqueurs
The ideal wine for distillation should be high in acidity, so the dominant grapes grown in the area tend to produce wines that, by themselves, would not be agreeable to drink.
There are eight varieties permitted, but the three most important are Ugni Blanc, which is considered the most suitable and known locally as Saint Emilion, Folle Blanche and Colombard.
The grape varieties used are Ugni Blanc, Picpoule (Folle Blanche), Colombard, Blanquette and Baco Blanc 22A (known locally as Piquepouls de Pays).

Cognac, for example, is distilled largely from the ugni blanc grape, which produces an entirely undistinguished wine.
Armagnac, too, uses plenty of ugni blanc, but that grape is supplemented with colombard, folle blanche, baco and a few others, grapes of more character than the ugni blanc, which may partly account for Armagnac's more pronounced aromatic range.
Our top-rated Armagnac, for example, the 1979 Château de Ravignan, is made from a blend of ugni blanc, baco and folle blanche.
