Wine producer

Approval for labelling of wine without protected geographical designations or origin designations with vintage and grape variety.

How to apply

Information about approval

Wine producers must be approved by the EU Member State in which the wine is produced.

The Swedish Food Agency makes decisions regarding the approval of producers for labelling with the vintage and grape variety for wine production that takes place in Sweden. Decisions are communicated within two months of receipt of a complete application. If motivated by the complexity of the case, the Swedish Food Agency may extend this period.

Approval and supervision
