Wine type (1)

Australian fortified wine

Cream

‘Cream’ describes a style of Australian
fortified sweet wine of not less then 5
beaume. The wine will be pale yellow to light
amber in colour, rich and sweet to taste and
typically with a vinous to fruity aroma. The
wine can be blended from more than one
vintage and typically does not exhibit age-
derived characters. Ageing takes place in a
variety of vessels. Fortification must be from
Australian grape spirit.
In addition, for the export market, the wine
will be produced using the solera system,
including being aged in oak barrels for at least
three years.

Crusted/Crusting

Crusted/Crusting describes a fortified wine in
which deposits may develop in the bottle.

Australian fortified wine

Ruby

Term

Solera

Tawny

Australian fortified wine

Ruby describes a style of Australian fortified
wine that receives only a few years of ageing
prior to bottling. At bottling the wine retains
a deep ruby colour and tends to be robust in
character, full bodied and fruity. The wine can
be blended from more than one vintage, with
a view to sustaining the primary character-
istics of colour and aroma. Fortification must
be from grape spirit.
In addition, for the export market, the ageing
of the wine will include, as a minimum,
ageing in oak barrels for four months.

Conditions of use

Wine type

Australian fortified wine

Australian fortified wine

Solera describes a system of using casks/
barrels containing wines of varying ages. The
wines from the barrel containing the oldest
mix of vintages is taken from the solera. All of
the wines in the barrels of the solera then
cascade in order of age and the barrel
containing the youngest mix of wines
refreshed with new wine. The process gives a
blended product, ranging from pale straw to a
dark amber colour depending on the style
being produced. This process is reserved for
the production of fortified wines.

Tawny describes a style of Australian fortified
wine that receives varying years of ageing
prior to bottling. At bottling the wine has a
red-gold or ‘tawny’ hue. The wines should
reflect the characteristics of careful aging
showing ‘developed’ rather than ‘fresh’ fruit
characters. However, many show the fresh
well developed ‘fruit’ characteristics of
younger wine. The wine is usually blended
from more than one vintage, may be matured
in oak containers and reaches an optimal age
before sale. Fortification must be from grape
spirit.

(1) The Contracting Parties acknowledge that the Australian wine type ‘fortified wine’ is equivalent to the Community product ‘liqueur wine’

as defined in point 14 of Annex I to Council Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999.

Vintage

Vintage describes a style of Australian
fortified wine that is produced from a single
vintage year. These high quality wines are
characterised by relatively long periods of
bottle maturation. They are generally deep in
colour, full bodied and smooth. They are
entitled to bear the designation ‘vintage’ and
the corresponding year. These wines are
characterised by the ability to improve with
age in bottle and benefit from prolonged
cellaring. Such wines are aged for a minimum
of twenty months prior to release. Fortifica-
tion must be from Australian grape spirit.
In addition, for the export market, the ageing
of the wine will include, as a minimum,
ageing in oak barrels for four months.

CONSOLIDATED EUROPEAN COMMUNITY DECLARATION

Australia's use of compulsory particulars

The European Community recalls that Article 3 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 753/2002 as amended,
requires, among other things, the presentation of compulsory particulars to be grouped in the same visual field
on the container. For wine originating in Australia, the European Community acknowledges that presentation
of the compulsory particulars in a single field of vision would meet this requirement, as long as the particulars
were simultaneously readable without having to turn the bottle and were clearly distinguishable from
surrounding text or graphics. The European Community confirms that the compulsory particulars may be
separated by text or graphics and may be presented on one or more labels within the single field of vision.

The European Community also acknowledges that Australia may, but is not required to, also present the
compulsory particulars referring to the importer and the lot number in that single field of vision.

Australia's use of certain particulars

The European Community recalls that Community regulations as provided for in Articles 34(1) and (2) of
Commission Regulation (EC) No 753/2002, as amended, require or permit the use of particulars as to the
address of certain persons involved in the marketing of the wine to be included on a wine label. In addition,
the European Community acknowledges that common English words such as ‘doctor’, ‘mountain’ and ‘sun’ etc.
could be used for the description and presentation of Australian wines.

Australia's use of free terms

The European Community recalls that Community wine legislation, in particular, Annexes VII and VIII of
Council Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 and Commission Regulation (EC) No 753/2002 as amended,
regulates the conditions of use of compulsory and optional particulars on the Community market. The
Community legislation allows the use of other terms than those expressly covered by the Community
legislation, provided that they are accurate, there is no risk of confusion with the terms covered by the
Community legislation and the operators can prove their accuracy where there is any doubt.

Consistent with this legislation, the European Community acknowledges that Australia may use terms other
than those regulated by the Agreement to describe and present its wine as long as the use of the terms
conforms with the rules applicable to wine producers in Australia.

CONSOLIDATED EXCHANGE OF LETTERS

A.

Letter from the European Community

Sir,

Brussels, 1 December 2008

I have the honour to refer to the negotiations recently undertaken between our respective delegations for
the purpose of reaching agreement between the European Community and Australia on trade in wine
(the Agreement).

Concerning the relationship between the Agreement and Article 24(1) of the TRIPs Agreement

The Contracting Parties understand that the negotiation and operation of the Agreement fulfils in respect
of wine each Contracting Party's respective obligation to the other Contracting Party in respect of
Article 24(1) of the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (the TRIPs
Agreement).

On the status of certain protected names

The Contracting Parties acknowledge that the provisions of the Agreement relating to traditional
expressions, categories of wine, sales descriptions and quality wine terms do not in and of themselves
constitute nor create intellectual property rights.

Concerning the protection of Geographical Indications

The Contracting Parties confirm their common understanding that the Agreement is without prejudice to
each Contracting Party's rights and obligations pursuant to Article 24(3) of the TRIPs Agreement.

Australia confirms that it will continue to ensure that, once a Community geographical indication
protected by Australia pursuant to this Agreement is entered on the Register of Protected Names, a
trademark containing or consisting of that geographical indication identifying a wine as listed in Annex II
cannot be used or entered on the Register of Trademarks in relation to wine unless that wine satisfies the
requirements pertaining to use of the Community geographical indication.

Australia confirms that, subject to Article 19 of the Agreement, a geographical indication listed in
Article 15 of the Agreement may be used in Australia to describe and present a wine originating in the
Community during the transitional period set out in that Article if the wine satisfies the requirements
pertaining to use of the geographical indication.

Concerning the relationship between certain Geographical Indications and Registered Trademarks

1.

As far as geographical indications protected in their respective territories after 26 January 1994 are
concerned, and insofar as consumers are not misled as to the origin of the wine, the Contracting
Parties agree to the following:

1.1. The trademarks ‘Ilya’, ‘Lienert of Mecklenburg’, ‘Lindauer’, ‘Salena Estate’, ‘The Bissy’, ‘Karloff’ and

‘Montana’ registered in Australia can continue to be used in Australia.

1.2. Notwithstanding Article 13(2) and (5) of the Agreement and the second paragraph of the Exchange
of Letters ‘Concerning the protection of Geographical Indications’, attached to the Agreement, the
trademarks ‘Stonehaven Limestone Coast’, ‘John Peel’, ‘William Peel’, ‘Old Peel’, ‘South Coast’ and
‘Domaine de Fleurieu’ registered in the Community and/or one or more of its Member States can
continue to be used in the Community and/or in the territory of the Member State concerned.

1.3. Nothing in the Agreement shall be deemed to prevent the trademark right holders from using these

trademarks elsewhere where laws and regulations so permit.

2.1. The Contracting Parties note that trademarks that do not contain or consist of a geographical
indication as listed in the respective annexes to the Agreement are not affected by the provisions of
Article 13(2) and (5) of the Agreement and can therefore continue to be used as far as the
Agreement is concerned.

30.1.2009

EN

Official Journal of the European Union

L 28/85

2.2. The Contracting Parties agree on discussing this issue, if needed, in the framework of the EC/

Australia Joint Committee, established by Article 30 of the Agreement.

3.1. The Contracting Parties also note that the Community Geographical Indication ‘Vittorio’ is subject
to a verification process in Australia in relation to the trademarks ‘Vittoria’ and ‘Santa Vittoria’.
Once this process is completed, and subject to settling any issues that might arise from this process,
the Contracting Parties will use best endeavours to update the list of Geographical Indications in
Annex II expeditiously, through the EC/Australia Joint Committee.

Duration

The Contracting Parties agree that the present Exchange of Letters shall remain in force as long as the
Agreement remains in force.

I have the honour to propose that this letter and your letter in reply confirming that the Government of
Australia shares this understanding shall together constitute an Agreement between the European
Community and the Government of Australia.

Yours sincerely,

For the European Community
