amending Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/33 as regards certain provisions on protected 
denominations of origin and protected geographical indications for wine and on the 
presentation of compulsory particulars for grapevine products and specific rules for th e 
indication and designation of ingredients for grapevine products, and Delegated 
Regulation (EU) 2018/273 as regards the certification of imported wine products   EN 1  EN EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM  
1. CONTEXT  OF THE  DELEGATED  ACT  
Regulation (EU) 2021/2117 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 2 December 
20211 has amended certain provisions of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 of the European 
Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 20132 in relation to the wine sector . The 
obligation to indicate the date of minimum durability for part ially de -alcoholi sed and de -
alcoholi sed wines with an actual alcoholic strength by volume of less than 10 % as well as the 
list of ingredients and the nutrition declaration for all grapevine products  has been  introduced . 
Certain provisions concerning the designations of origin and th e geographical indications in 
the wine sector laid down in Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/333 have been 
added to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013.  
Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 empowers the Commission to adopt delegated acts to lay 
down rules for the  indication and designation of ingredients for grapevine products, on the 
presentation and use of labelling particulars and  on the conditions to be followed in respect of 
an application for the protection of a designation of origin or geographical indicati on, scrutiny 
by the Commission, the objection  procedure, and procedures for amendment, cancellation and 
conversion of protected designations of origin or protected geographical indications . It also 
empowers the Commission to adopt delegated acts on the rul es on the accompanying 
document and its use , and on the conditions under which imported products are considered to 
have an equivalent level of conformity to the Union marketing standards and conditions.  
The purpose of this delegated act is to amend accordi ngly the existing Commission Delegated 
Regulation (EU) 2019/33 supplementing Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 as regards 
applications for protection of designations of origin, geographical indications and traditional 
terms in the wine sector, the objection procedure, restrictions of use, amendments to product 
specifications, cancellation of protection, and labelling and presentation . 
Certain a mendments to Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2018/273 are also provided 
for, accordingly . 
2. CONSULTATIONS  PRIOR  TO THE  ADOPTION  OF THE  ACT  
Consultations, involving experts from all the 27 Member States have been carried out as a 
preparation for and during the meetings of the Expert Group for the Common Organisation of

 EN 2  EN Agricultural Markets – Wine held (virtually) , on 29 April , 20 June , 27 September  and 20 
October  2022 .  
3. LEGAL  ELEMENTS  OF THE  DELEGATED  ACT  
The delegated act is based on Articles  89, 109(3), point (b)  and 122 of Regulation (EU) No 
1308/2013 and should be adopted by means of the procedure in accordanc e with  Article 227 
of the same Regulation.  
This Regulation provides the necessary amendments  to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/33 to 
complete the rules of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 on the derogation for the date of 
minimum durability to appear in the same field of vision on the container  of grapevines 
products , and on the rules on the indication of the list of ingredients for grapevine products . It 
also clarifies  the conditions of use of certain terms, modifies a provision o n the presentation 
of sparkling wines, and removes some obsolete references. In addition, it provides the 
necessary technical amendments to make Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/33 consistent with 
Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 by deleting the provisions that were moved into Regulation 
(EU) No 1308/2013.  
Furthermore, it prov ides for an amendment to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2018/273, 
concerning the content of the  single  accompanying document for the import of wine products 
(the ‘VI -1 document’), as referred to  in Article 20, and the content of the extract (the ‘VI -2 
extract’), to fulfil the obligation of bearing the list of ingredients.

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,  
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,  
Having re gard to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 of the European Parliament and of the 
Council of 17 December 2013 establishing a common organisation of the markets in 
agricultural products and repealing Council Regulations (EEC) No 922/72, (EEC) No 234/79, 
(EC) No 10 37/2001 and (EC) No 1234/20071, and in particular Article 89, Article 109(3), 
point (b)  and Artic le 122 thereof , 
Whereas:  
(1) Regulation (EU) 2021/2117 of the European Parliament and of the Council2 has 
amended Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013.  
(2) In the context of that amendment, the provisions of Articles 6, 10, 12, 14, 15, 20 and 
22 of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/333 have been inserted in Article 
96(5) and (6) , Article 97(2), Article 98(2), (3), (4) and (5),  and Articles 105, 106 and 
106a of Regulati on (EU) No 1308/2013.  
(3) In particular, Article 15 of  Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/33  is no longer useful  
since it sets out a specific procedure for approval of Union amendments to a product 
specification  - allowing their approvals without vote of the Committee in case no 
opposition is lodged against that amendment following the publication in the Official 
Journal  of the European Union  - which has now become the standard procedure for 
registration of a protected designation of origin  or protected geographical indication 
under Article 99 of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 , but also for approval of Union 
amendments to product specifications by virtue of Article 105(3) , first subparagraph, 
of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 .

amending Regulations (EU) No 1308/2013 establishing a common organis ation of the markets in 
agricultural products, (EU) No 1151/2012 on quality schemes for agricultural products and foodstuffs, 
(EU) No 251/2014 on the definition, description, presentation, labelling and the protection of 
geographical indications of aromati sed wine products and (EU) No 228/2013 laying down specific 
measures for agriculture in the outermost regions of the Union (OJ L 435, 6.12.2021, p.  262). 
3 Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/33 of 17 October 2018 supplementing Regulation (EU) 
No 1308/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards applications for protection of 
designations of origin, geographical indications and traditional terms in the wine sector, the objection 
procedure, restrictions of use, amendments to product  specifications, cancellation of protection, and 
labelling and presentation (OJ L 9, 11 .1.2019 , p. 2).  EN 4  EN (4) For the sake of c larity and ease of use for the operators, Articles 6, 10, 12, 14, 15, 20 
and 22 of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/33 should be deleted  and references to 
those Articles changed .  
(5) Following the addition of a new paragraph 3 in Article 97 of Regulation (EU) N o 
1308/2013  by Regulation (EU) 2021/2117 , the existing paragraph 3 of that Article 
became paragraph 4 . Following the addition of new points, points (a)(iii) and (b)(iii) 
of Article 93(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 became points (a)(iv) and (b)(iv) of 
that Article respectively . References in Article 5 (1), (2) and (3) of Delegated 
Regulation (EU) 2019/33 to points (a)(iii) and (b)(iii) of Article 93(1) of Regulation 
(EU) No 1308/2013 and references in point (c)(iii) of Article 11(1) and in point (b) of 
the second subparagraph of Article 13(1)  of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/33 to 
Article  97(3)  of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 should be adjusted accordingly .  
(6) Annex III, Section B, point 3, second paragraph , of Commission Delegated Regulation  
(EU) 2019/ 9344 provides that as concerns liqueur wines bearing the protected 
designation of origin ‘Condado de Huelva’, ‘Málaga’ and ‘Jerez -Xérès -Sherry’, the 
must of raisined grapes to which neutral alcohol of vine origin has been added to 
prevent fermen tation, obtained from the Pedro Ximénez vine variety, may come from 
the ‘Montilla -Moriles’ region . However, Article 5 (3) of Delegated Regulation (EU) 
2019/33  states currently  that this derog ation only applies to liqueur wines with the 
protected designation of origin ‘Málaga’ and ‘Jerez -Xérès -Sherry’. To ensure 
consistency  with the provisions of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/934 and with the 
specifications of the  liqueur  wines bearing the protected designation of origin 
‘Condado de Huel va’, it is necessary to amend Article 5(3) of Delegated Regulation 
(EU) 2019/33 and clarify that the derogation concerning the provenance of the must of 
raisined grapes to which neutral alcohol of vine origin has been added to prevent 
fermentation  applies also to liqueur wines with the protected designation of origin  
‘Condado de Huelva’.  
(7) For all grapevine products that have undergone a de -alcoholisation treatment and have 
an actual alcoholic strength by volume of less than 10  %, Regulation (EU) 2021/2117 
introduced the date of minimum durability as a compulsory particular in Article 119(1) 
of Regulation (EU) No 1308/ 2013. However, i n accordance with the requirements of 
Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011  of the European Parliament and of the Council5 that 
are appli cable to all foodstuffs, it is appropriate to establish that the  date of minimum  
durability, whenever displayed on the container , does not need to appear in the same 
field of vision as required for other compulsory particulars referred to in Article 119 of  
Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013.  
(8) Regulation (EU) 2021/2117 added also the list of ingredients and the nutrition 
declaration pursuant to Article 9(1), point s (b) and (l), respectively , of Regulation 
                                                 
4 Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/934 of 12 March 2019 supplementing Regulation (EU) 
No 1308/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council  as regards wine -growing areas where the 
alcoholic strength may be increased, authorised oenological practices and restrictions applicable to the 
production and conservation of grapevine products, the minimum percentage of alcohol for by -products 
and their  disposal, and publication of OIV files (OJ L 149, 7.6 .2019 , p. 1).  
5 Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 October 2011 on 
the provision of food information to consumers, amending Regulations (EC) No 1924/2006 an d (EC) 
No 1925/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council, and repealing Commission Directive 
87/250/EEC, Council Directive 90/496/EEC, Commission Directive 1999/10/EC, Directive 2000/13/EC 
of the European Parliament and of the Council, Commission Directives 2002/67/EC and 2008/5/EC and 
Commission Regulation (EC) No 608/2004 Text with EEA relevance  (OJ L 304, 22.11 .2011 , p. 18).  EN 5  EN (EU) No 1169/2011, to the list of compulsory particular s set out in Article 119(1) of 
Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 . Regulation (EU) 2021/2117 , by amending Article 122 
of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 , also empowered the Com mission to adopt specific 
rules  concerning the indication and designation of ingredients for t he application of the 
new requirement laid down in Article 119(1), point (i) , of Regulation (EU) No 
1308/2013 . It is therefore appropriate to provide for the rules necessary to take into 
account the specific characteristics of grapevine products and the sp ecific processes 
and timing of their production, while providing consumers with comprehensive and 
accurate information. These rules should  apply  when  the list of ingredients is provided 
on the wine label, but also when the list of ingredients is provided by electronic means 
identified on the package or on a label attached thereto , in accordance with Article 
119(5) of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 . 
(9) Article 119(5), point (c), of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013, read in conjunction wit h 
Article 9, paragraph 1, po int (c)  of Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011 , lays down that, 
where the list of ingredients is provided by electronic means, the indication of the 
substances causing allergies or intolerances is to appear directly on the package or on a 
label attached thereto. For reasons of consistency with the requirements of Regulation 
(EU) No 1169/2011 , which  are already  implemented  in the wine sector , it is 
appropriate that the derogation provided for in Article 40(2) of Delegated Regulation 
(EU) 2019/33 allowing  to indicat e those substances outside the field of vision 
continues to apply in those cases. However, where the list of ingredients is presented 
on the package or on a label attached thereto, the allergenic substances must be 
indicated in the list of ingredients, in accordance with Article 21(1), point (a), of 
Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011.  
(10) Since grapevine products are always produced from  grapes, it is appropriate to allow 
the use of a single term to indicate the  basic raw material in the list of ingredients 
irrespective of whether the winemaker has used fresh grapes or grape must. In fact, the 
consistent use of the term ‘grapes’  in the list of ingredients for grapevine products 
allows a harmonised, comprehensible and cl ear information for consumers . 
(11) The substances authorised under Union law for different oenological purposes such as 
enrichment and sweetening, including  sucrose, concentrated grape must and rectified 
concentrated grape must , should be part of the list of i ngredients . In order to facilitate 
the understanding of consumers and the management by winemakers  of the listing of 
substances  based on grape must , it is appropriate to allow using the term ‘concentrated 
grape must’ to designate both  concentrated grape mu st and rectified concentrated 
grape must . 
(12) In addition to the  indication of  grapes, sweetening and enrichment substances, and 
possibly  tirage liqueur and expedition liqueur , the list of ingredients should be 
completed with  an indication of the additives  used in the production of grapevine 
products , as well as  the processing aids that may cause allergies or intolerances . It is 
appropriate to specify that the oenological compounds  that may be in the list of 
ingredients are those  referred to  in Annex I, Part  A, Table 2, of Delegated Regulation 
(EU) 2019/934, and that the  terms to  designate them in the list of ingredients are the  
specific name s of the substances  as contained in this table . 
(13) In the winemaking process, the decision on using certain additives , in particular 
additives falling under the categories ‘ acidity regulators ’ and ‘stabilising agents ’ as 
provided for  in Annex I, Part A, Table 2, of  Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/934, is 
often taken , at different  phase s of production  or packaging , on an ad hoc  and EN 6  EN customized  basis , e.g. for different vintages but also for different lots of the same 
vintage . In order to  avoid imposing an excessive burden on winemakers  and other 
operators  in the wine sector  , which  are very often micro -enterprises  and would 
other wise be obliged to re -label constantly the same product only to adjust the specific 
compound used for one and the same purpose , and to facilitate timely labelling while 
guaranteeing accuracy  of information to con sumer s], it is appropriate to allow  
operators to present , in the list of ingredients ,  an exhaustive  list of the additives of 
those categories likely to be contained in the final product . 
(14) Article 41 of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/33 provides for the terms that shall be 
used for labelling certain substances or products causing allergies or intolerances , as 
referred to in Article 21 of Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011, concerning 
sulphites/sulfites, eggs and egg -based products and milk and milk -based products . 
Those  terms should continue to be u sed, also w ithin the list of ingredients  when it  is 
presented on the package or on a label , for consistency reasons and  taking into account  
that consumers are familiar there with.  
(15) Certain a dditives used as packaging gases (carbon dioxide, argon and nitrogen) have 
as main objective the displacing of oxygen during the bottling  of grapevine products , 
but they do not become part of the product that is consumed . As their indication in the 
list of  ingredients may confuse consumers on the true nature and composition  of wine , 
it appears appropriate to replace  them with a specific particular  that describes their 
function by using the term ‘ Bottled in a protective atmosphere’ . As the use of these 
gases  is sometimes decided on an ad hoc  basis, depending on factors such as the 
destination market or the means of transport, it is appropriate to provide for the term 
‘Bottling may happen in a protective atmosphere’ . 
(16) Certain oenological practices for the production of  sparkling wines consist in the 
addition of a ‘tirage liqueur’ to the cuvée, to provoke the secondary fermentation, and 
the addition of an ‘expedition liqueur’ to confer those wines their specific organoleptic 
properties. All possible constitu ents of both the tirage liqueur and the expedition 
liqueur are regulated in Annex II to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/934, and consist 
of sucrose , grape must, concentrated grape musts and/or wine , but these are not  used 
for sweetening or enrichment . Give n their very specific oenological function s, the 
simple indication of the individual components of the tirage liqueur and the expedition 
liqueur together with the other ingredients may be misleading for the consumers , 
unless they are grouped  under the rele vant specific term s. Therefore,  it should be 
allowed to display  the terms ’tirage liqueur ’ and ’expedition liqueur ’ in the list of 
ingredients , either alone or accompanied by a list of their actual constituents.  
(17) Certain provisions of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/33 specific to the United 
Kingdom , such as Article 45(3) or Article 51 , fourth paragraph , have become obsolete  
since th at country is no  longer  a Member State of the Union . Therefore , those 
provisions should be deleted . 
(18) In accordance with Article 57 (1), point (a),  of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/33 , the 
foil sheathing the fastening of the sparkling wine bottle is generally reserved as a 
compulsory distinctive feature of sparkling wines, quality sparkling wines and 
aromatic  quality sparkling wines. The use of the foils should therefore continue to be 
reserved as a distinctive feature for these wines,  with the exceptions defined in Article 
57(2)  of that Delegated Regulation . However, producers and bottlers should be 
allowed t o refrain  from using  foil for operational reasons such as cost savings, waste EN 7  EN avoidance or improvement of marketing , provided that the closure continues to avoid 
unintentional opening . 
(19) Annex III, Part B , of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/33 , defining the c onditions of 
use of the terms referred to in Article 52(1)  of that Delegated Regulation to be used for 
other products than those listed in Part A , should be amended to clarify further  the 
conditions of use of those terms.  
(20) The list of ingredients and the nutrition declaration, as new compulsory particulars, 
become an integral part of the ‘description of the product ’ in the accompanying 
documents referred to in Article 10 and Annex V, section A, of Commission 
Delegated Regulat ion (EU) 2018/2736, from the date of entry into force of the relevant 
provisions, and shall apply to both wine transported in bulk and to labelled packaged 
wine products.  Conversely, i n order to ensure that wine imported into the Union  is 
labelled in accor dance with Union rules, the requirements for the VI -1 document and 
VI-2 extracts set out  in Annex VII to that Delegated Regulation should  be amended to 
ensure that the list of ingredients is an integral part of the description of the imported 
product.   
(21) Delegated Regulations (EU) 2019/33 and (EU) 2018/273 should therefore be amended 
accordingly.  
(22) In accordance with Article 6 , fifth subparagraph,  of Regulation (EU) 2021/2117, the 
obligation to list the ingredients and to indicate the date of minimum durability  of 
partially de -alcoholised and de -alcoholised grapevine products with an actual alcoholic 
strength by volume of less than 10 % are to apply from 8 December 2023.  
Consequently , the amendments related to those obligations should apply from  that 
same  date.
