Parliament's amended version of the proposed regulation updates EU rules for the wine sector and aromatised wine products, and labelling rules for spirit drinks. It adjusts market rules and sectoral support measures, including provisions on vineyard authorisations, blending, and electronic identification.

Key points

  1. The regulation amends Regulations (EU) No 1308/2013, (EU) No 251/2014 and (EU) 2021/2115 on wine market rules and support, and Regulation (EU) 2024/1143 on spirit drink labelling.
  2. The Commission will try to present in 2026 a draft implementing act to extend the simplified procedure for granting replanting authorisations under Article 9 of Regulation (EU) 2018/274.
  3. The Commission will propose amending Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/33 to define the Union system for identifying on packaging or labels the electronic means referred to in Article 119(4) and (5) of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013.
  4. The Commission will propose amending Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/934 to allow blending de-alcoholised or partially de-alcoholised wines with still wines to produce partially de-alcoholised wines.
  5. The Commission will propose a delegated act laying down conditions for grubbing up abandoned vineyards as per new Article 62(6) of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013.

Who is affected

  • Wine producers and member states' authorities dealing with vineyard authorisations and grubbing-up schemes.
  • Producers of partially de-alcoholised wines, who may blend de-alcoholised wines with still wines.
  • Producers and labelers of grapevine products, who will need to use the Union system for electronic identification.

Figures and deadlines

  • Year 2026: the Commission will present draft acts in that year.
