Nutritional labeling guide for wines

At the end of June, the DGCCRF published a guide to help professionals apply the new wine labeling rules.

Since December 8, 2023, two new statements have been mandatory on the label of wines produced from this date: the list of ingredients and the nutritional declaration.

This information can be dematerialized via QR code.

This guide explains how to display :

• List of ingredients: order, terms used, additives and allergens.
• Nutritional declaration: mandatory elements (energy value and nutrients), their order of display, quantity and unit per 100mL.
• Dematerialization via QR code or similar device: mandatory information on the physical label (allergens and energy value), QR code format.

The guide gives an example of labeling a brut sparkling wine to illustrate these new rules.

It also provides a table of average energy values for the wine sector and indications on nutrient quantities.
