Proposal for a

REGULATION OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL

amending Regulations (EU) No 1308/2013, (EU) 2021/2115 and (EU) No 251/2014 as regards certain market rules and sectoral support measures in the wine sector and for aromatised wine products

amending Regulations (EU) No 1308/2013, (EU) 2021/2115, (EU) 2021/2116 and (EU) No 251/2014 as regards certain market rules and sectoral support measures in the wine sector and for aromatised wine products

Amendment 2

Proposal for a regulation

Recital 4

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(4) In view of the current decline in demand for wine, winegrowers who hold valid unused authorisations for new plantings and authorisations resulting from the conversion of planting rights granted to them before 1 January 2025 should be allowed to waive these authorisations without incurring an administrative penalty, with a view to removing the incentive for planting authorisation holders to plant vineyards where there might be no demand for the wine they will produce. For the new planting authorisations granted after that date, the administrative penalty should continue to apply in case of non-use of these authorisations in order to discourage speculative applications from winegrowers who do not have the intention to plant a vineyard.

Amendment 3

Proposal for a regulation

Recital 6

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(6) Member States should be given the possibility to limit the issuing of new planting authorisations at regional level for specific areas with excess supply where national or Union measures aimed to reduce the supply (i.e. distillation, green harvesting or grubbing up of vineyards) are or have been implemented in order to avoid further increasing the production potential, while at the same time being able to prioritise planting in regions with land unsuitable for other crops, thereby capitalising on their wine-growing potential as a means of developing the local economy.

Amendment 4

Proposal for a regulation

Recital 8

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(8) While the replanting of a grubbed-up vineyard does not increase the vineyard area, Member States should be given the possibility to set rules for replanting in order to better manage the territorial distribution of vineyards, for instance to avoid the relocation of vineyards to regions with a market imbalance or away from slopes and terraces, where they play an important role in the preservation of the landscape and avoid soil erosion. Member States should also be given the possibility to set conditions on the use of varieties and production methods to avoid an increase in yields and to ensure preservation of traditional grape varieties and production methods.

Amendment 5

Proposal for a regulation

Recital 9 a (new)

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(9a) Rules for classifying wine grape varieties by Member States should be modified to include the wine grape varieties Noah, Othello, Isabelle, Jacquez, Clinton and Herbemont, previously excluded. To ensure that wine production in the Union develops a higher resistance to diseases and that it uses vine varieties better adapted to changing climatic conditions, provision should be made allowing Vitis Labrusca varieties and varieties stemming from crosses between Vitis vinifera, Vitis Labrusca and other species of the genus Vitis to be planted for wine production in the Union.

Amendment 6

Proposal for a regulation

Recital 10

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(10) In recent years, there has been an ever-evolving consumer demand for grapevine products with a reduced alcohol content, which are at present produced by de-alcoholisation by using certain techniques allowed in the Union. Consumers are familiar with terms such as ’0,0%’, ‘alcohol-free’ and ’alcohol-light’, which are widely used but regulated differently in various Member States. It is therefore necessary to harmonise the use of these terms across the Union. The rules on the labelling of wine products should therefore be amended in order to better inform the consumer of the characteristics of grapevine products with a reduced alcohol content, while keeping the obligation to provide information on the production method consisting of a de-alcoholisation. This should allow the Union wine sector to benefit from this development in consumer demand while maintaining high quality production standards.

Amendment 7

Proposal for a regulation

Recital 11

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(11) High consumer demand for sparkling wine products with a lower alcohol content or without alcohol represents an opportunity for the sector. However, the current rules for the production of de-alcoholised wines impose certain technological limitations for the production of such wines. According to the rules currently in force, wine products must have reached the characteristics and the minimum alcoholic strength of the corresponding category before undergoing the de-alcoholisation process, which implies that de-alcoholised sparkling wines can be produced only from sparkling wines. However, the de-alcoholisation process removes entirely any CO2 from the initial sparkling wine. Consequently, in order to produce a sparkling wine with lower or no alcoholic content, it is necessary to reintroduce CO2 in the partially or totally de-alcoholised wine that has lost its initial CO2 content, through a new, separate process. Therefore, it should be allowed to produce de-alcoholised sparkling and aerated sparkling wines directly from de-alcoholised or partially de-alcoholised still wines through a second fermentation or the addition of CO2, respectively.

Amendment 8

Proposal for a regulation

Recital 11 a (new)

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(11a) The legislation of third countries on the indication of the list of ingredients and nutritional declaration on the label of wine widely varies and it is burdensome for Union exporters to comply with the requirements set by Union law and by the law of the third countries concerned, at the same time. Therefore, to facilitate exports, it is appropriate to allow Member States to exempt wine to be exported from the obligation to indicate on its label the list of ingredients and the nutrition declaration otherwise required by Union law. At the same time Member States have to take the necessary steps to verify that such products are exported.

Amendment 9

Proposal for a regulation

Recital 11 b (new)

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(11b) Blending or coupage of partially or fully de-alcoholised wine with wine, or combining different partially de-alcoholised wines, enhances the quality and sensory characteristics of the final product. This method is simple to implement, cost-effective, and less energy-intensive, making it a more sustainable approach to producing partially de-alcoholised wines.

Amendment 10

Proposal for a regulation

Recital 12

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(12) The possibility to provide the list of ingredients and the nutrition declaration of wine products by electronic means has proven effective for operators for presenting important information to consumers, while facilitating the functioning of the internal market and wine exports, especially for small producers. However, the absence of harmonised rules on the identification, on the package or the label attached thereto, of the electronic means providing the list of ingredients and/or the nutrition declaration, is causing diverging practices by operators and different rules by national authorities, affecting the proper marketing of wines. In order to minimise costs and the administrative burden for operators, and to ensure a common approach across the Union market, while taking into account the need to make such information accessible to consumers, the Commission should be empowered to develop, in cooperation with Member States, rules on the identification on the package or the label attached thereto of the electronic means providing consumers with the list of ingredients and the nutrition declaration in a harmonised way, including through a language-free system.

Recital 14

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(14) Member States have the possibility to adopt marketing rules to regulate the supply in the wine sector to improve and stabilise the operation of the common wine market. In the current context of structural consumption decrease and recurrent situations of oversupply in certain regions and market segments, it is appropriate to clarify that such rules can include the setting of maximum grape yields and the management of wine stocks. Moreover, producer organisations can play an important role in strengthening the winegrowers’ position in the food supply and in adapting supply to market trends. Therefore, Member States should also be able to adopt marketing rules in the wine sector taking into account proposals adopted by recognised producer organisations or by recognised interbranch organisations, when they are representative in the concerned economic area or areas.

Amendment 12

Proposal for a regulation

Recital 14 a (new)

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(14a) Certain Member States are not faced with oversupply but rather decrease in vineyard areas and wine production. For those cases, it is encouraged that Member States design specific interventions aimed at increasing the financial and other support to the wine sector with the goal of stabilising wine production and that these interventions should be made available directly to wine growers, with minimal administrative burden and without delay.

Amendment 13

Proposal for a regulation

Recital 15 a (new)

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(15a) Member States are authorised to choose in their strategic plans green harvesting interventions in the wine sector. In view of the situation faced by the wine sector and the structural crisis in certain regions and Member States, it is also appropriate to give Member States the option to include grubbing up and distillation in their voluntary crisis measures. Such an option would offer a common framework for such activities, avoid a distortion of competition and ensure a level playing field for both producers and Member States.

Amendment 14

Proposal for a regulation

Recital 15 b (new)

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(15b) To prevent the spread of pests and diseases and to safeguard public health and safety, Member States should be allowed to require the destruction of vines in abandoned vineyards. Such measures contribute to maintaining sanitary conditions in viticultural areas.

Amendment 15

Proposal for a regulation

Recital 15 c (new)

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(15c) In order to accompany wine producers after a grubbing up and in order to limit overproduction, it is necessary to allow the diversification of productions to be supported by sectorial interventions.

Amendment 16

Proposal for a regulation

Recital 18

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(18) The issues highlighted above for grapevine products in relation to the identification of the electronic means containing the nutrition declaration and the list of ingredients are valid also for aromatised wine products. Therefore, the Commission should be empowered to develop, in cooperation with Member States, rules on the identification on the package or the label attached thereto of the electronic means for aromatised wine products. To ensure simplicity and clarity, these rules should be the same as those applied to grapevine products.

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(20a) To address the decline in consumption and the market instability the Union is currently facing, the Commission should encourage the Member States to invest in the development of wine tourism. Member States should be supported in facilitating the establishment and development of wine tourism infrastructure, including but not limited to cycle routes, bed-and-breakfast accommodations, parking areas, wine tasting facilities and designated wine trails, through the simplification of relevant authorisation and permitting procedures.

Amendment 19

Proposal for a regulation

Recital 21

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(21) In order to strike a balance between the need for Member States to ensure efficient restructuring of vineyards and the need to avoid an increase in production that may lead to oversupply, Member States should be allowed to set up conditions for the implementation of the restructuring and conversion of vineyards as referred to in Article 58(1), first subparagraph, point (a), of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115. These conditions should aim at avoiding an increase in yield and thus an increase in production for the vineyards subject to this type of interventions.

Recital 22

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(22) To adapt to market trends and harness efficient market opportunities, the maximum duration of the support for promotion and communication operations carried out in third countries in relation to the consolidation of market outlets should be extended from three to five years.

(22) To adapt to market trends and harness efficient market opportunities, including by opening up new export markets and diversifying market outlets, the maximum duration of the support for promotion and communication operations carried out in third countries in relation to the consolidation of market outlets should be extended from three to five years. The option should also be given to extend those operations for another five year period for the purposes of consolidating market outlets. When considering promotion and communication operations targeting third countries, it is relevant to distinguish between different markets in the same country. In large countries, with distinct regions, certain of those regions will need different communication approaches. In addition, it should be possible for such operations to target different segments, including caterers or final consumers. It is necessary to offer flexibility to address those differences better.

Amendment 22

Proposal for a regulation

Recital 22 a (new)

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(22a) To prevent the spread of plant diseases such as flavescence dorée and other highly contagious pests, monitoring, diagnostic, training, communication and research activities should be included among the interventions that Member States can choose in their CAP Strategic Plans. Given the risks that highly contagious plant diseases pose for winegrowers across the Union, Union financial assistance should cover up to 100 % of eligible costs.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

The crisis in the European wine sector is deep and structural. The continued decline in wine consumption in the EU, combined with geopolitical difficulties in traditional export markets and the effects of climate change on production, have created a scenario of oversupply, depressed prices and serious economic difficulties for European winegrowers. This situation threatens the rural fabric, the landscape and the continuity of an essential part of the cultural and economic heritage of many European regions.

Aware of this reality, the European Commission launched the High Level Group on Wine Policy in July 2024. The results of its work were reflected in the policy recommendations it published in December of the same year. The Parliament asked the European Commission for a rapid response to translate these recommendations into the acquis communautaire. The European Commission responded to these demands promptly by presenting this legislative proposal. These initiatives and the speed with which this proposal was adopted demonstrate the Commission’s awareness and sensitivity to the situation of the sector, as well as its commitment to an effective and coordinated response at European level.

The legislative proposal builds on the work and recommendations of the High Level Group on Wine Policy, which was set up precisely to study these challenges and to propose structural solutions. The recommendations of the Group – which received broad political and institutional support – provide the basis for immediate and proportionate legislative action to stabilise the market and offer future prospects for the sector.

The draft report presented by the rapporteur does not seek to reopen the strategic debate on the substance of the proposal, but to complete and improve it, ensuring that the proposed tools are effective and consistent with each other. It is also essential that this process move forward with the same momentum and speed with which the European Commission has initiated it. The sector needs the co-legislators to take action to provide it with the necessary tools in the shortest possible timeframe.

Amendments have been tabled to reinforce key aspects, such as flexibility for Member States to adopt measures according to the realities of their specific regions; promoting sustainability by supporting adaptation to climate change; and clarification of regulatory aspects to ensure legal certainty and homogeneity in the internal market.

The measures envisaged in the proposal – from voluntary grubbing-up and distillation as crisis management tools for which Member States can earmark national funds, to harmonised labelling for dealcoholised products – form a coherent package. The proposal includes the extension of the duration of activities in the areas of communication and promotion to 5 years. This draft report builds on this by introducing the possibility to extend these activities, as well as the possibility to split large markets geographically or by market segments in order to carry out better targeted campaigns. Another measure that the draft report seeks to underpin is the harmonisation of electronic labelling by introducing in the basic act the fundamental elements of electronic labelling so that it is available when the regulation enters into force. The aim of these measures is twofold: on the one hand, to respond urgently to the current situation, and on the other, to lay the foundations for a more competitive, sustainable model adapted to the new demands of the European market and consumer.

The amendments tabled are intended to complete the inclusion of some key aspects that had been left out of the original proposal. Crisis management measures have been included within the set of sectoral interventions that Member States can adopt in their strategic plans. The aim is to ensure a balance within the common market by offering the opportunity for these measures not to depend exclusively on the economic capacity of each Member State, but also for them to be eligible for European co-financing. In the same vein, the aim is to provide Member States with budgetary flexibility in order to make better use of funds for interventions in the sector. The High Level Group recommended exploring options along these lines and the draft report gives the option to carry over the remaining funds from one year to the next to finance crisis management measures.

In short, this report seeks to provide the EU wine sector with robust and coherent tools adapted to the challenges of the present and of the immediate future. It is the responsibility of the European institutions to step up to face this crisis head-on and to act swiftly and with strategic vision to preserve a sector that is vital for many regions of Europe.
