Question restatement: Which one of the following is a French labelling term used to indicate a wine with a protected designation of origin (PDO)?

Option a: a. Appellation d'origine contrôlée
- This is the French term for a PDO in wine labeling. It denotes that the wine comes from a clearly defined geographic area and meets specific production standards. The abbreviation AOC is widely used in France and historically tied to PDO concepts in wine.

Option b: b. Denominaciones de Origen Protegidas
- This phrase is Spanish and translates to Protected Designations of Origin. It is used for Spanish (and some other) products under a different regional labeling system, not the French PDO term.

Option c: c. Qualitätswein
- Qualitätswein is German for “quality wine” and is part of the German wine quality scheme. It has nothing to do with the French PDO labeling; it reflects German origin and standards rather than French origin.

Option d: d. Denominazione di Origine Controllata
- This Italian term means “Controlled Designation of Origin” and is the Italian equivalent of a PDO, but it is Italian, not French. It signifies Italian origin labeling rather than French.

Summary of reasoning:
- The question asks specifically for the French term used to indicate a wine with a PDO. Among the options, the French term is Appellation d'origine contrôlée, which directly corresponds to the concept described. The other options are labeled in Spanish, German, and Italian and pertain to their respective countries’ origin-designation systems, not the French term.
