EU Agriculture: Commission asks France to comply with European rules on marketing wine spirits and wine distillates
Feb 27, 2012 6
(Europa) - The European Commission has officially requested France to amend its rules on the production and marketing of certain products obtained by distilling lees and marcs. The case concerns the authorisation given by the French authorities to approved distillers to produce, on an experimental basis, wine spirits and wine distillates by distilling the by‑products of winemaking (marcs and lees), with a view to marketing them under the names 'eaux‑de‑vie de vin' and 'distillats de vin'.
