Belgian wine is produced in several parts of Belgium and production, although still modest at 1,400 hectoliter in 2004, has expanded in recent decades. Wine production occurs in both Wallonia and Flanders. As French is one of Belgium's official languages, the official terms used for Belgian wine regions are the same as those for French wine. Belgium has five officially demarcated Appellations d'origine controlees (AOCs), four in Flanders and one in Wallonia, and two Vin de pays regions. Hageland, situated in Flemish Brabant close to Leuven, was the first AOC was created, in 1997. AOC Haspengouw followed in 2000, located in Limburg, close to the border with Netherlands, and home to Belgium's most famous "chateau" and largest wine producer, Wijnkasteel Genoels-Elderen. AOC Heuvelland followed in 2005.
