Wine Names?

Many wine names are copywrited.  For instance Beaujolais which is a French wine is owned by the French. So if a canadian kit wine manufacturer makes a Beaujolais wine the manufacturer can't call it Beaujolais. Hence the need to rename the copywrited French wines.  Listed below are some names.

Old Name                                           New Name
Anjou                                                  Anjile
Beaujolais                                           Bergamais
Burgundy                                            Bourgeron
Entre-Deux-Mers                               Bris-de-Mers
Pomerol                                             Cavignac
Chablis                                              Chamblaise
Pommard                                          Chat Dormant
