Parliamentary questions
19 April 2012
E-004089/2012
Question for written answer
to the Commission
Rule 117
Nigel Farage (EFD)

 Subject: Regulation of the sale of wine
 Answer(s) 

Can the Commission explain why the processing of grapes into wine, when done outside the country of origin of the particular cultivar of grapes used, precludes the use of the universally recognised cultivar name (e.g. Malbec or Chardonnay) to describe the product?
