the Wiki List of DOCGs is incomplete. Don’t believe everything you read

Don Ciuccio, you’re entirely right: the Wiki list is out-of-date. It’s hard to keep up with the most recent DOCGs as there has been a rush to add DOCs and DOCGs before the August 1 deadline when authority to approve them shifted from Rome to Brussels.
The most complete and up-to-date list of DOCGs I know was published by Alfonso Cevola at his blog, On the Wine Trail in Italy:

You might also want to take a look at this editorial that Franco and I posted at VinoWire:
http://vinowire.simplicissimus.it/2009/03/20/ocm-reforms-eurobureaucrats-please-block-the-growth-of-docs-before-we-lose-count/
It includes links to the EU pages on CMO (Common Market Organisation) reforms.
Thanks for your comment! And, yes, indeed, one should never believe everything one reads!
