An appellation is a name or a title — what people call someone or something, often a rather careful or grand name, not a nickname shouted across a room. A writer may say a king was known by a certain appellation, meaning that was the title stuck to him. The word feels formal, even a little old-fashioned, in everyday talk; we usually just say name or title.

Though actually, in the wine world it is alive and practical: an appellation is a protected name for wine from a particular place, with rules about how it may be made. On a label it tells you the valley or village, not only the grape. So the core idea is still “a name,” but one use of that name is legal and commercial.
