ANNEX

‘VINOS DE MADRID’

PDO-ES-A1525-AM02

Date of application: 25-2-2016

REQUEST FOR AMENDMENT TO THE PRODUCT SPECIFICATION

1.   Rules applicable to the amendment

Article 105 of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 — Non-minor modification

2.   Description and reasons for amendment

2.1.   Amendment to extend the protected geographical area, adding a new sub-area called ‘El Molar’

Description and reasons for the amendment are as follows:

The studies and documents available have revealed that the administrative limit of the existing geographical area of the current ‘Vinos de Madrid’ designation of origin is not entirely appropriate, as it does not include another region where wine is effectively being produced, where the traditional practices for making the wines have been maintained for the two categories of wine covered by this DO (wine and quality sparkling wine). This is the reason why the vine-growers, wine-makers and authorities of the eleven municipalities that make up what is known as the ‘El Molar sub-area’ have expressed an interest in joining the ‘Vinos de Madrid’ designation of origin.

In section 4 of the Product Specification, the geographical area where wines covered by the ‘Vinos de Madrid’ designation of origin are produced needs to be amended. A fourth sub-area, called ‘El Molar’ is added to the three existing sub-areas (Arganda, Navalcarnero and San Martín de Valdeiglesias).

The new sub-area of ‘El Molar’ consists of 11 municipalities: Colmenar Viejo, El Molar, El Vellón, Patones de Arriba, Pedrezuela, San Agustín de Guadalix, Talamanca del Jarama, Torrelaguna, Torremocha del Jarama, Valdetorres de Jarama and Venturada, which share the same the natural and human factors as the area currently demarcated for the ‘Vinos de Madrid’ designation of origin and the same link between the product and the geographical area.

This means the protected geographical area will now consist of 70 municipalities instead of the existing 59 that make up the other three sub-areas.

Point 6 of the Single Document also needs to be amended so that its wording is identical to that of section 4 of the Product Specification.

2.2.   Description of the wines

Paragraph 2(a) Analytical Characteristics of the Product Specification is amended to specify the minimum actual alcoholic strength required to guarantee the homogeneity of this new geographical sub-area of ‘El Molar’, which is set at 11 % for white wines, 11,5 % for rosé wines and 12 % for red wines. It will be noted that these values are the same as the ones provided for two of the current sub-areas (Navalcarnero and San Martin de Valdeiglesias). There are no specific values for the rest of the analytical parameters in this new sub-area; the ones that have been established for the ‘Vinos de Madrid’ PDO apply.

This does not affect the Single Document.

2.3.   Wine grape variety or varieties

Point 6 of the Product Specification is amended to specify the main varieties of vines in the new sub-area of ‘El Molar’: Malvar in the case of white wines and Red Grenache in the case of red wines.

In any case, the same varieties of vines currently authorised are maintained for the new sub-area and the existing three sub-areas; white wines: Malvar, Albillo Real, Airén, Viura, Torrontés, Parellada, Moscatel de grano menudo (small grain Muscat) and Sauvignon Blanc; red wines: Tinto Fino (Tempranillo or Cencibel), Red Grenache, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Petit Verdot, Graciano and Grenache Tintorera).

This does not affect the Single Document.

2.4.   Link with the geographical area

The first signs of wine-making activity in the ‘El Molar’ sub-area date as far back as the Early Middle Ages. The oldest of the region’s ‘wine caves’, of Arabic origin, date back to the 9th and 10th centuries. The first written record of the existence of vineyards in San Agustín de Guadalix dates from the 13th century, and in the other municipalities from the 14th century. This activity has continued to the present day, with 4 production industries, 600 vineyard parcels and more than 300 active wine-growers. Therefore the new sub-area of ‘El Molar’ is included in and shares the same historical background as the current ‘Vinos de Madrid’ designation of origin.

It can also be confirmed that the new ‘El Molar’ sub-area shares the same uniformity and homogeneity in terms of its pedo-climatic characteristics, varieties, growing and oenological practices and soil features linked to the current geographical area protected under the ‘Vinos de Madrid’ DO.

The Red Grenache and Malvar varieties are the most common ones in the ‘El Molar’ sub-area. They have been grown in the area since ancient times and can also be found in the other current sub-areas where other vine varieties are also common, which have given the wines produced there an excellent reputation since time immemorial.

Section 7(a) ‘Details of the geographical area. Natural factors’ of the Product Specifications is extended to add mentions to the new sub-area of ‘El Molar’.

| — | Location of the ‘El Molar’ sub-area between the Central System and the Jarama River. |
| --- | --- |

—

Location of the ‘El Molar’ sub-area between the Central System and the Jarama River.

| — | Description of soils in the sub-area of ‘El Molar’: The soils in the ‘El Molar’ sub-area have developed on the basis of geological materials such as granite, quartz, slate, shale, gneiss, sandstone, marl, limestone marl, limestone and arkose. In this sub-area, the vines are situated in open countryside and in alluvial zones of the Jarama River, and the soils are a mix of those that are found in the three pre-existing sub-areas, i.e. relatively flat elevations in the land between the rivers (this is true of all four sub-areas). The pH range is very broad, from very acid to very alkaline. |

—

Under ‘Altitude and rainfall’: the municipalities of El Vellón and Colmenar Viejo are added to the higher areas linked to the mountains; San Martín and El Molar are referred to as the sub-areas with the highest rainfall.

In Section 7(b) of the Product Specification, which refers to the human factors, ‘Malvar, which is native to Arganda and Navalcarnero’ is replaced by ‘... Malvar, which is native to Arganda, Navalcarnero and El Molar’. Similarly, in the part explaining the relevance of the Grenache variety (‘queen’) in Navalcarnero and San Martín, the amendment extends this relevance to ‘Navalcarnero, El Molar and San Martín’.

As a result of the amendment made to the geographical area, the numbers mentioned are corrected, so that previous references to ‘three sub-areas’ are changed to ‘four sub-areas’.

Section 7(c) ‘Causal interaction of the Product Specification’ has been reworded to highlight more clearly the features that are fundamentally or exclusively due to the geographical surroundings for each of the vine product categories covered by the ‘Vinos de Madrid’ designation of origin: wine and sparkling wine, which apply to the four sub-areas:

‘The physical features of the geographical environment, combined with the climatic conditions (plateau of a particular height and rivers, continental climate, low rainfall, austere soils with an average yield of about 3 000 kg per hectare), give rise to white wines that are dry and unctuous with a bitter aftertaste, with notes of ripe white fruit and medium to low acidity. They also lead to rosé and red wines with a high alcoholic strength and intense colour, which are reminiscent of ripe or over-ripe red or black fruits.

The sparkling wines (white and rosé) share the same distinctive elements of the area (characteristic pedo-climatic factors), as well as the same cultural and human factors (size, planting density, varieties, cultural practices, minimum total acidity of 5 g/l), which give them their specific features in terms of appearance, aroma — reminiscent of their lees — and taste. As a result of being made according to the traditional method, these sparkling wines are soft and creamy, presenting a mix of the aromas and tastes of the wines produced in the geographical area. As they undergo a second fermentation process while bottled, the excess pressure and ageing on the fermentation lees give them fine, long-lasting bubbles, a fruity, microbiological aroma and a fresh, sharp taste.

These natural features of the geographical surroundings, combined over the centuries with the painstaking work of the vine-growers and the harmony achieved by planting the right varieties in the right soils, produce quality wines with a unique identity.’

Point 8. Description of the link(s) of the Single Document is amended to provide a summary of the new text of the Product Specification.

2.5.   Possibility of increasing the yield

Possibility of increasing the yield

Description and reasons:

A fertility report is drawn up in the Spring (flowering count) and before the harvest a reasoned technical report is issued (assessing aspects such as rainfall in winter or a frost-free Spring) to prove that this variation will not have a negative impact on the quality of the protected product. In any case, the maximum increase that can be authorised must not exceed 25 % of the stipulated limits.

Amendment to Point 8 of the Product Specification, Supplementary Requirements, and to section 2.5.1 of the Single Document, to include the possibility of an increase in yield.

Wine making practices

(a)   Essential oenological practices

Essential oenological practices

Cultivation practice

Cultivation practice

Crop management techniques for all wines:

Planting density: Between 900 and 4 000 stocks per hectare.

Training and pruning: Goblet or espalier vine-training systems with a maximum of 16 productive buds per stock or 36 000 per hectare.

The maximum yield per hectare may be altered by the Regulatory Board in certain seasons, either at its own discretion or at the request of the interested vine-growers. To this end, a report must be issued by the competent authorities in the field, who will gather the relevant technical reports to prove that the change will not have a negative impact on the quality of the protected product. In any case, this change may not exceed 25 % of the stipulated limit.

Specific oenological practice

Specific oenological practice

The maximum yield is set at 74 litres of must for each 100 kg of harvest.

The grapes suitable for use in the production of wines with the Designation of Origin shall have a sugar content equal to or above 170 degrees per litre of must.

White and red wines which, as a result of their special production method contain carbon gas of an endogenous origin, caused by the fermentation of the musts on the ‘madres’ (crushed, destemmed grapes) may be labelled ‘Sobremadres’.

Sparkling wine shall be made from white and rosé wine.

Only authorised grape varieties may be used in production. Production shall be carried out using the traditional method.

Restriction relevant to vinification

Restriction relevant to vinification

For the extraction of the must from fresh grapes being processed for the first time, or if the wine created by the fermented marc in red wine production, in the processes used for obtaining products suitable for the Designation of Origin ‘Vinos de Madrid’, mechanical systems may be used only when they do not damage the solid components of the bunch; the use of high-speed centrifugal crushers is banned.

No use may be made of practices to pre-heat the grapes, or to heat the musts or the wines in the presence of the marc, with the purpose of forcing the extraction of the colouring material.

Wine and quality sparkling wine

Wine and quality sparkling wine

The ‘Vinos de Madrid’ PDO is demarcated on the North and West by the Spanish Central System, a vertical axis that separates Madrid from Castile and Leon. On the East it is bounded by the Alcarria, a plateau of a certain height, low or non-existent fertility and harsh climate, which provides a natural border with the plateau of Castile-La Mancha. The Tajo River marks a natural boundary on the South. The designation is traversed by six waterways which mark out the acclimatisation areas for the vines: the sub-area of San Martín de Valdeiglesias between the Central System and the Alberche River; the sub-area of Navalcarnero between the Alberche River and the Guadarrama River; the sub-area of El Molar between the Central System and the Jarama River, and the sub-area of Arganda between the Guadarrama River and the Tajo.

In the Arganda sub-area, the prevailing soils have a high lime content with areas of gypsum-bearing marl (alkaline PH); in the Navalcarnero sub-area, they are of siliceous origin, on plains with an acidic PH; the soils in the sub-area of San Martín de Valdeiglesias are mostly granitic in origin, on slopes and foothills with an acidic PH; the soils in the El Molar sub-area have developed on the basis of very diverse geological materials, featuring a combination of the soils to be found in the other three sub-areas.

The vines grow at an altitude of between 480 and 1 000 metres. The area has a continental Mediterranean climate, with an average annual rainfall of 658 mm and temperatures ranging between 40 and -17 C. The sunshine hours vary between 2 300 and 2 800 hours.

These pedo-climatic conditions have influenced the human factors as regards the specific handling of the vines, which have traditionally been grown in goblet systems without irrigation, with low planting density and a limited number of plant protection treatments. The natural factors have also been decisive as regards the varieties that were planted: the native Malvar in Arganda, Navalcarnero and El Molar and the traditional Albillo Real in San Martín de Valdeiglesias. As for the varieties grown for red wine, Tinto Fino in Arganda and Red Grenache in Navalcarnero, San Martín de Valdeiglesias and El Molar are considered the main ones for the various sub-areas, given the fact that they have been grown there traditionally since ancient times and because of their decisive impact on the aroma and taste of the wines produced.

In terms of the local varieties, Malvar is native to Arganda, Navalcarnero and El Molar and Albillo Real is traditional in San Martín de Valdeiglesias. As regards the varieties grown for red wine, Tinto Fino is local to Arganda and Red Grenache to Navalcarnero, San Martín de Valdeiglesias and El Molar.

As far as traditional wine-making practices are concerned, the highlight are the ‘sobremadre’ wines, which are bottled without racking after the must is left in contact with what are known as the ‘madres’ (crushed and destemmed grapes).

The wines made from the Albillo Real and Malvar varieties are complex in terms of their aroma, with prevailing notes of white fruit, apple and pear. Tastewise, they are reminiscent of ripe fruit. The red and rosé wines made from Grenache and Tempranillo feature red berry aromas and a ripe fruity taste.

All of these climatic, soil, varietal and human factors combine to give the wines produced in this designation of origin certain unique characteristics: usually low yields (average production per hectare around 3 000 kg of grapes), wines with a high average alcoholic strength (14 ° for the red wines and 12,5 ° for the white wines), with medium-low acidity, with an intense colour for the red wines, aromas of mature or very mature fruits, in many cases like jam, for the white wines usually with hints of pear and apple, and for the rosé and red wines, notes of red and black fruits. A mineral taste with aromatic hints of scrubland and fruity maturity both in terms of taste and aroma.

The quality sparkling wines are made from white and rosé wines, solely of the Malvar, Albillo Real, Torrontés, Viura, Parellada, Red Grenache and Tinto Fino varieties; they share the same distinctive elements of the area (characteristic pedo-climatic factors), as well as the same cultural and human factors (size, planting density, varieties, cultural practices, minimum total acidity of 5 g/l), which give them their specific features in terms of appearance, aroma — reminiscent of their lees — and taste (soft and creamy). As a result of the traditional process whereby these natural sparkling wines are made, including a stage where they are matured in the bottle and a second fermentation, they have fine, long-lasting bubbles, a fruity, microbiological aroma and a fresh, sharp taste.

Packaging in the demarcated geographical area

Description of the condition:

Description of the condition:

Wines covered by the ‘Vinos de Madrid’ designation of origin may only be packaged and shipped by bottling companies that are registered and authorised by the Regulatory Board and which are based in the area where they are produced, so as to preserve the specific physical-chemical and/or organoleptic characteristics of the product, thus protecting the quality and reputation of the designation of origin, based on the expertise and traditional know-how (thorough knowledge of the specific characteristics acquired over the course of many years) of the operators in the protected area.

The aim is to ensure the origin and particular quality of the wines, avoiding subjecting the wine to inappropriate environmental conditions that might affect its sensory characteristics (redox phenomena, temperature variations, etc.) and, therefore, change the aspects which define this PDO.

All the protected wines marketed for consumption must be bottled before they can be dispatched. The wines protected by the PDO may only be put into circulation and dispatched by the wineries in bottles which do not detract from their quality or prestige. In view of the fact that the bottling of the wines is one of the critical points for safeguarding the characteristics acquired during the manufacturing process and, where applicable, the ageing process, this must be carried out solely by the owners of the wineries at their bottling facilities, located in the protected demarcated area.

New national side of euro coins intended for circulation

(2018/C 398/13)

National side of the new commemorative 2-euro coin intended for circulation and issued by Andorra

Euro coins intended for circulation have legal tender status throughout the euro area. For the purpose of informing the public and all parties who handle the coins, the Commission publishes a description of the designs of all new coins (1). In accordance with the Council conclusions of 10 February 2009 (2), euro-area Member States and countries that have concluded a monetary agreement with the European Union providing for the issuing of euro coins are allowed to issue commemorative euro coins intended for circulation, provided that certain conditions are met, particularly that only the 2-euro denomination is used. These coins have the same technical characteristics as other 2-euro coins, but their national face features a commemorative design that is highly symbolic in national or European terms.

Issuing country
  : Andorra

Subject of commemoration
  : 70 years of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights

Description of the design
  : The design of the coin depicts seven staircases (representing the seven parishes or administrative divisions of Andorra) in the shape of mountains that lead to the valley, where there is the name of the issuing country ‘ANDORRA’ and the year of issue ‘2018’. These staircases are, at the same time, the branches of a tree symbolizing humankind, of which Andorra is an integral part. 30 leaves come out of the branches of this tree representing the 30 articles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The Catalan inscription ‘70 ANYS DE LA DECLARACIÓ UNIVERSAL DELS DRETS HUMANS’ (70 years of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights) surrounds the design, strengthening this commemorative event.

The coin’s outer ring depicts the 12 stars of the European flag.

Estimated number of coins to be issued
