New EU Wine Labeling Regulations and the Impact
Introduction
The European Union (EU) has implemented groundbreaking regulations for wine labeling, which have been effective from December 08, 2023. The regulations are applicable to wines manufactured from the 2024 harvest onward. These regulations aim to enhance consumer information by requiring detailed labels, including ingredient lists and nutritional values. The implications of these changes are substantial for wine manufacturers in the EU, demanding adjustments to labeling practices for compliance and transparency.
