BANZAI7--A dozen French winemakers and traders have been found guilty of a massive scam to sell 18 million bottles of Welchade grape juice relabeled Pinot Noir to a leading US buyer.
The judge in Carcassonne, south-west France, said the producers and traders had severely damaged the reputation of the Langedoc region.
The 12 more than doubled profits passing off the wine to E and J Gallo under its Red Bicyclette brand.
