WRITTEN QUESTION P-2577/00

by Sebastiano Musumeci (UEN) to the Council

(26 July 2000)

Subject: Use of rectified concentrated grape must to the detriment of the Sicilian wine-producing sector

The Sicilian wine-producing sector is going through a significant process of expansion and improving the
quality of its products, as recognised throughout the world. The relevant Community authorities are about
to adopt provisions allowing the use of rectified concentrated grape must, produced from grapes picked
outside the wine-growing areas of zones C III A and C III B. These provisions are likely to have an adverse
effect on the whole wine-producing sector in Sicily and other Mediterranean regions.

Can the Council say:

1. whether it can confirm that the above-mentioned provisions are soon to be adopted?

2.

if so, whether it can endeavour to ensure that the provisions are revised to prevent adverse economic
effects on Sicilian wine producers?

Reply

(10 November 2000)

The common organisation of the wine-producing market does not contain rules limiting the use of
rectified concentrated grape must to grapes picked in certain wine-growing areas. Council Regulation (EC)
No 1493/99 on the common organisation of the market in wine (1) provides specific aid inter alia for
rectified concentrated grape musts (Article 34(b), Title III, Chapter III,
(cid:145)Aids for specific uses(cid:146)). That
provision also lays down that (cid:145)The grant of aid may be reserved for products coming from wine-growing
zone C III if the trade patterns in must and coupage wines cannot be guaranteed without this measure(cid:146).

The new Regulation took effect on 1 August 2000 and,
implementing rules, the Commission adopted Regulation (EC) No 1623/2000 of 25 July 2000 (2).

in accordance with its powers to establish

Given that the Commission has jurisdiction for this area, it is not for the Council to issue an opinion on
