If you buy a White Bordeaux wine kit it's still white but it isn't Bordeaux anymore!
A long time ago you could buy a Beaujolais or a Chablis wine kit. The French winemakers didn't like this. They considered it an infringement of international trade agreements. So many of the wine kits had to be renamed. Here is a list the kit names that had to be changed with the corresponding new names on the right.
