Serbia's 2013 rulebook defines 22 wine regions by municipality lists. These outlines approximate them by district and municipality.

Outline: Built from the administrative units that contain the area. The legal boundary follows other lines (roads, rivers, farms or altitude), so the real area is smaller.
