Whereas Article 13 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3929/87 on harvest, production and stock declarations relating to wine-sector products (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 605/92 (4), provides that the quantities of products to be entered in  the declarations are to be expressed in hectolitres of wine; whereas, however, in order to take account of the particular situation of certain vine growers who harvest grapes without themselves making wine, the Member States should be authorized to  allow the quantities of grapes to be indicated in units of weight in the harvest declaration, broken down by variety, instead of giving an estimate of the volume of grapes harvested by the producer;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Wine,
