|
3. |

Explanation of the grounds for modification
Re. 1: This change will mean that both spellings commonly found in Germany are included.
Re. 2: Under national law, use of the term is not restricted to wine with a protected geographical indication. This was not previously reflected in EU law and should therefore be clarified.
Re. 3: Under national law, the term ‘Federweisser / Federweißer’ may only be used for a product under the grapevine product category of ‘partially fermented grape must’ as provided for under point 11 of Part II of Annex VII to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013. For this reason, the current grapevine product category of ‘wine’ as provided for under point 1 of Part II of Annex VII to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013, should therefore be replaced.
Re. 4: This change takes into account amendments since made to national law and the conditions now applicable to the use of the term.
