Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2018/273

of 11 December 2017

supplementing Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the scheme of authorisations for vine plantings, the vineyard register, accompanying documents and certification, the inward and outward register, compulsory declarations, notifications and publication of notified information, and supplementing Regulation (EU) No 1306/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the relevant checks and penalties, amending Commission Regulations (EC) No 555/2008, (EC) No 606/2009 and (EC) No 607/2009 and repealing Commission Regulation (EC) No 436/2009 and Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/560

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 establishing a common organisation of the markets in agricultural products and repealing Council Regulations (EEC) No 922/72, (EEC) No 234/79, (EC) No 1037/2001 and (EC) No 1234/2007(1), and in particular Articles 69, 89, 145(4), 147(3) and 223(2) thereof and point 5 of Section D of Part II of Annex VIII to that Regulation,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1306/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 on the financing, management and monitoring of the common agricultural policy and repealing Council Regulations (EEC) No 352/78, (EC) No 165/94, (EC) No 2799/98, (EC) No 814/2000, (EC) No 1290/2005 and (EC) No 485/2008(2), and in particular Articles 64(6) and 89(5) thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 has repealed and replaced Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007(3). Chapter III of Title I and Section 2 of Chapter II of Title II of Part II of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 contain rules as regards the scheme of authorisations for vine plantings and its management, the vineyard register, accompanying documents and certification, inward and outward register, and communication requirements in the wine sector and empower the Commission to adopt delegated and implementing acts in that respect. Those acts should replace the relevant provisions of Commission Regulations (EC) No 555/2008(4) and (EC) No 436/2009(5), as well as some provisions of Commission Regulations (EC) No 606/2009(6) and (EC) No 607/2009(7) concerning certification of varietal wines and administrative rules relating to inward and outward registers. In the interest of simplification, the new delegated act should also incorporate the provisions of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/560(8).

(2) In the interest of legal certainty, certain terms used in this Regulation and in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/274(9) should be defined. It is appropriate to define the different types of vine areas and operators in relation to the specific rights and requirements provided for each of them in both Regulations.

(3) Article 62 of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 lays down the general requirement for the Member States to grant an authorisation for vine plantings upon submission of an application by producers intending to plant or replant vines. However, pursuant to paragraph 4 of that Article, certain areas are exempted from the scheme of authorisations. It is necessary to lay down rules on the conditions for the application of that exemption. The areas intended for experimental purposes or for graft nurseries should only be used for the specified purposes in order to avoid the circumvention of the new scheme. Grapevine products made from such areas should not be marketed unless Member States consider that there are no risks of market disturbance. Existing wine-growing experiments and graft nurseries should be allowed to continue under the rules applicable to them before the entry into force of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/560. In order to guarantee that areas whose wine or vine products are intended solely for the consumption by the winegrower's household do not contribute to market disturbances, it is appropriate to lay down a size limit and make the exemption subject to the condition that the winegrower is not involved in commercial wine production. For the same reason, such exemption should also be extended to organisations without a commercial activity. In respect of areas established by a producer having lost a certain area planted with vines due to compulsory purchases in the public interest under national law, a condition as regards the maximum surface of the new area should be laid down, so as to avoid undermining the general objectives of the scheme of authorisations for vine plantings.

(4) Article 64(1) and (2) of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 lays down rules concerning the granting of authorisations for new plantings and sets out eligibility and priority criteria that Member States may apply. Specific conditions associated to some of the eligibility and priority criteria should be laid down in order to establish a level playing field for their implementation and to avoid the circumvention of the system of authorisations by producers being granted authorisations. In addition, the three additional criteria introduced by Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/560 should be maintained: an eligibility criterion on the misappropriation of reputation of protected geographical indications; a priority criterion favouring those producers that comply with the rules of the scheme and do not have abandoned vineyards in their holding; and a priority criterion favouring non-profit organisations with a social purpose having received lands confiscated in case of terrorism and other types of crime. The eligibility criterion responds to the need of protecting the reputation of specific geographical indications in a similar manner as the reputation of specific designations of origin, ensuring that they are not threatened by new plantings. The first priority criterion favours certain applicants on the basis of their background that shows their respect for the rules of the authorisations scheme and that they are not applying for authorisations for new plantings while having areas planted with vines out of production which could generate authorisations for replanting. The second priority criterion aims at favouring non-profit organisations with a social purpose having received lands confiscated in case of terrorism and other types of crime, in order to promote the social use of land that could risk otherwise being out of production.

(5) Taking into account Article 118 of Regulation (EU) No 1306/2013 and in order to address natural and socioeconomic differences and different growth strategies by the economic actors in those different areas within a particular territory, Member States should be permitted to apply the eligibility criteria and priority criteria referred to in Article 64(1) and (2) of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013, as well as the three additional eligibility and priority criteria, differently at regional level, for specific areas eligible for a protected designation of origin (‘PDO’), for specific areas eligible for a protected geographical indication (‘PGI’) or for areas without a geographical indication. Such differences in the application of those criteria in the different areas of a particular territory should always be based on the differences between those areas.

(6) In order to respond to cases of circumvention not anticipated by this Regulation, Member States should adopt measures to avoid the circumvention of eligibility or priority criteria by applicants of authorisations where their actions are not already covered by the specific anti-circumvention provisions laid down in this Regulation with regard to the specific eligibility and priority criteria.

(7) Article 66(2) of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 provides for the possibility of co-existence of vines that the producer has undertaken to grub up with newly planted vines. In order to prevent irregularities, Member States should have the possibility to ensure by the appropriate means that the undertaking to grub up is carried out, including the requirement to lodge a security accompanying the granting of an authorisation for anticipated replanting. In addition it is necessary to specify that in case the grubbing up is not carried out within the 4-year deadline set out in that provision, the vines planted in the pledged area are to be considered as non-authorised.

(8) Article 66(3) of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 allows Member States to restrict the replanting in areas eligible for the production of wines with protected designations of origin or protected geographical indications, on the basis of a recommendation from recognised and representative professional organisations. The grounds or reasons for such decisions of restriction should be defined in order to clarify the limits of their scope, while ensuring the coherence of the scheme and avoiding its circumvention. It should be ensured that the automaticity in granting authorisations for replantings established in Article 66(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 does not hinder the possibility of Member States to limit the issuing of authorisations for specific areas in accordance with Article 63(2)(b) and (3) of that Regulation. Nevertheless it should be clarified that certain specific cases may not be considered as a circumvention of the scheme.

(9) Article 145 of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 provides that certain Member States are to keep a vineyard register containing up-to-date information about the production potential. The details of the information to be included in the vineyard register should be laid down in this Regulation.

(10) Pursuant to Article 147(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013, wine products may be put into circulation within the territory of the Union only with an officially authorised accompanying document. Rules on the use of that accompanying document should be laid down.

(11) Experience in Member States has shown that the scope of the exemptions from the obligation of transporting wine products with an accompanying document may cover wider distances and a wider range of operations, thus facilitating wine movements, without preventing a satisfactory level of traceability of wine products. In particular, grape juice and must falling within CN codes 2009 61 and 2009 69 delivered to operators not involved in winemaking should also be exempted since those operators are not subject to control by the authorities in charge of the wine sector and the traceability of those products can be ensured by means of a commercial document.

(12) Council Directive 2008/118/EC(10) contains harmonised arrangements for certain excise goods, including certain alcoholic beverages, and provides for an electronic administrative document and other documents that must accompany consignments of such goods. With a view to establishing uniform rules applicable within the Union and simplifying administrative formalities for operators, it is appropriate to provide that documents accompanying consignments of wine products for the purpose of applying excise rules are also considered as recognised accompanying documents within the meaning of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013.

(13) Taking into account Article 40 of Directive 2008/118/EC and in order to accelerate the administrative formalities for operators and present higher guarantees of reliability for the certification and traceability of wine products, the use of a simplified information system for issuing electronic accompanying documents put in place by the Member States providing the use of a commercial document containing at least the details necessary for identifying the product and for tracking its movement should be recognised as regards consignments of wine products from small producers and consignments of wine products not subject to excise duty. However, in order to allow the Member States that do not use yet such an information system to set it up, a transitional period should be provided during which both paper and electronic accompanying documents may be used.

(14) Taking into account Article 30 of Directive 2008/118/EC, Member States should be allowed to use simplified procedures and documents that enable them to monitor the movement of wine products carried out exclusively on their territory.

(15) The accompanying documents may also serve to certify certain characteristics of wine products in general and their vintage year or wine grape varieties and their PDO or PGI in particular. In order to ensure equal treatment of all operators, this Regulation should lay down the conditions under which the accompanying documents can be used for the purpose of such certification. In order to simplify administrative formalities for operators and to remove the burden of routine tasks from the competent authorities, provision should be made for the latter to authorise consignors to fill in and self-certify in the accompanying documents the origin or provenance and characteristics of the wine products, the vintage year or the grape variety(ies) from which the products are produced and the PDO or PGI of the wine.

(16) Where specific certificates concerning the characteristics of the wine products have to be provided by operators at the request of third countries, this Regulation should offer the possibility to use a certification for exported wine products and provide for the conditions for its authenticity and use.

(17) In addition to the accompanying documents, supplementary documents, such as export declarations, are required by the customs rules as proof of export of wine products. Additional procedures should therefore be laid down for drawing up and validating those documents in accordance with the rules laid down in or under Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council(11).

(18) Wine products transported in bulk are more susceptible to fraudulent practices than labelled bottled products fitted with a non-reusable closing device. Therefore, prior information of the competent authority at the place of loading on the details included in the accompanying document should be required for such consignments, unless an information system is used allowing the competent authority at the place of unloading to be informed of those details.

(19) To facilitate checks by the competent authorities of transports of consignments of third country products released into free circulation or of Union products that were initially exported and then reimported into the Union, a reference to the documents used for the release into free circulation or, in the case of products originating in the Union, to the accompanying document issued for the initial dispatch or other accepted document proving the origin of the products should be required on the documents accompanying the consignments of such products after release into free circulation.

(20) In the interest of legal certainty, rules should be laid down to harmonise the action to be taken by the consignee in case of refusal of a product transported under cover of an accompanying document and to specify under the cover of which accompanying document the product may subsequently be transported.

(21) To address cases where the competent authority finds or has a justified reason to suspect that a serious infringement of Union or national rules in the wine sector as regards the transport of wine products under the cover of accompanying documents or the production conditions or composition of such products has been committed by a consignor and with a view to enabling the competent authorities to monitor the subsequent movement or to decide on the future use of the product in question, it is appropriate to lay down detailed provisions regarding the procedure that may be required by the competent authority as regards the accompanying documents and the exchange of information and mutual assistance between competent authorities in such instances.

(22) In order to ensure a deterrent effect or to restore legality in the event of non-serious infringements relating to accompanying documents for transports of wine products, rules should be laid down that enable the competent authority that discovered the irregularities to take appropriate measures to regularise such transport or to take proportionate measures in respect of the irregularities, including a ban on the marketing of the products in question, and to inform the competent authority at the place of loading.

(23) In the interest of legal certainty, it is appropriate that rules relating to cases of force majeure or to unforeseen incidents in the course of transport are provided so that the carrier is aware of what is required to regularise the transport operation in question.

(24) Article 90 of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 provides that the imported wine products covered by that Article are to be accompanied by a certificate drawn up by a competent body in the product's country of origin and an analysis report drawn up by a body or department designated by the third country of origin. In order to reduce the number of documents required for imports into the Union and facilitate checks by the competent authorities of the Member States, that certificate and that analysis report should be combined to be integrated in one single document, the VI-1 document. With a view to ensuring legal certainty and facilitating trade, provision should be made for such document to be regarded as certifying the characteristics of the wine product, the vintage year or grape variety(ies) or a PDO or PGI.

(25) For the sake of harmonisation and to alleviate the administrative burden both for operators and Member States, the exemptions from the requirement to present a VI-1 document for wine products being imported into the Union should be brought in line with the exemptions applicable to documents accompanying consignments of wine products after their release into free circulation within the Union, with the Union system of reliefs from customs duty laid down in Council Regulation (EC) No 1186/2009(12) and with exemptions stemming from specific conventions on diplomatic relations concluded with third countries.

(26) In order to allow the competent authorities of the Member States to apply harmonised procedures and use the same type of document no matter the Member State of destination of the imported products, a specimen of the VI-1 document and its extract, the VI-2 extract, should be provided, as well as details relating to the procedure to be followed for their issuing.

(27) Rules for the use of the VI-1 document and of the VI-2 extract should be laid down to ensure that all parties concerned follow the same procedure to release a consignment into free circulation. Taking into account the commercial practice, it should be clarified that where a consignment of wine is split up, competent authorities should be empowered to have extracts of the VI-1 document drawn up under their supervision to accompany each new consignment resulting from the splitting.

(28) With a view to facilitating trade and simplify indirect imports, it is appropriate to lay down rules specifying the cases where no further analyses are required for imports from a third country other than the country of origin of the wine product.

(29) With a view to addressing the particularities of specific wines such as liqueur wines and wines fortified for distillation as well as wines bearing a geographical indication, rules should be laid down in relation to the use of the VI-1 document for consignments of such wines. In order to alleviate the task of the exporters and the authorities, presenting the VI-1 document should be enough to certify the geographical indication or vinous origin of the alcohol added to liqueur wines or wines fortified for distillation, provided certain conditions are fulfilled.

(30) With a view to facilitating trade with third countries that concluded agreements with the Union which include clauses concerning closer cooperation on the prevention of fraud and that maintain good trade relations with the Union, it is appropriate to authorise producers in those countries to issue VI-1 documents themselves and to consider those documents as documents issued by competent bodies of, or bodies or departments designated by, the third countries as referred to in Article 90 of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013, in a manner similar to that already allowed for wines of Union origin.

(31) Taking into account the development of computerised systems in the wine sector and in order to facilitate the monitoring of the movements and checks of wine products, it is appropriate to authorise also the use of computerised systems and electronic documents to be issued by competent bodies of third countries or directly by the operators in third countries under supervision of their competent authorities. Nevertheless, the use of computerised systems should be subject to the respect of certain minimum conditions and to the recognition by the Union that the system of checks established in a third country offers sufficient guarantees as regards the nature, the origin and the traceability of the wine products imported in the Union from that third country. It is therefore necessary to lay down those minimum conditions. In order to simplify and accelerate procedures for both operators and competent authorities for issuing VI-2 extracts, it is appropriate to allow the Member States' authorities to issue such extracts by means of computerised systems, according to procedures to be established by them.

(32) Under Article 147(2) of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013, natural or legal persons who hold wine products are to keep an inward and outward register in respect of those products. However, for certain operators whose stocks or sales do not exceed certain thresholds or who sell only in their premises, keeping a register would constitute a disproportionate burden. Therefore, they should be exempted from this obligation. Member States should keep a list of those operators obliged to keep an inward and outward register for transparency and control purposes. Also, in order to ensure the traceability and the monitoring of the movement and stocking of wine products, rules should be laid down concerning the need of a separate register for each undertaking, details on how to keep it as well as the operations to be recorded in the register.

(33) This Regulation should provide common rules applicable to all operators. With a view to facilitating checks, Member States should nevertheless be able to establish complementary rules on registration particulars concerning certain products or operations to be included in the register and to require operators to notify certain treatments to be recorded in the register. However, since those notifications could cause disproportionate administrative burdens for certain operators, it is justified to restrict the possibility of Member States to require such notifications.

(34) In order to facilitate the collection of market information data for monitoring and market management while limiting the administrative burden, provisions should be laid down to ensure that production and stock declarations are submitted by the operators concerned established in Member States which are obliged to maintain a vineyard register. However, Member States which are not obliged to maintain a vineyard register should be given the possibility to require such declarations. In order to avoid the duplication of data, those Members States that have implemented a vineyard register containing annually updated information on the area planted with vines in relation to each winegrower should be able to exempt operators from declaring the area in the production declarations.

(35) With the aim of improving traceability and market management, Member States should be allowed to collect complementary data regarding the production of grapes and must intended for winemaking. For this purpose Member States should be allowed to require harvest declarations.

(36) With the aim of improving traceability and market management, Member States should be allowed to collect data about operations that may take place between the actual harvest date and the dates for submission of the production and harvest declarations concerning the treatment or marketing of the harvested grapes and resulting must or grape juice.

(37) For the sake of improved transparency and market management, the rules laid down in this Regulation should not impede Member States from requesting more comprehensive information. In addition, in cases of absence of production or stocks, Member States should be allowed to exempt operators from submitting declarations.

(38) For the purposes of Article 89 of Regulation (EU) No 1306/2013, uniform rules should be laid down on checks to be carried out in relation to the internal market. Therefore, the authorities responsible for monitoring the holding and marketing of wine products should be provided with the necessary instruments for carrying out effective checks in accordance with uniform rules applicable throughout the Union as regards the production potential, vineyard register, accompanying documents, certification and inward and outward register.

(39) In order to guarantee the smooth operation of checks and sampling of grapes and wine products, provisions should be adopted to prevent parties subject to checks from obstructing those checks and to oblige them to facilitate sampling and provide the information required pursuant to this Regulation.

(40) With a view to providing Member States with efficient tools to address the risk of fraudulent manipulation of wine, the analytical databank of isotopic data referred to in Article 89(5) of Regulation (EU) No 1306/2013 has been established at and is managed by the European reference centre for the control in the wine sector set up within the Joint Research Centre. The use of reference isotopic methods of analysis ensures effective checks relating to the enrichment of wine products or the discovery of the addition of water to such products. Along with other analytical techniques, the analytical data bank of isotopic data helps to verify conformity of wine products with the declared origin and variety. To this end, provisions should be laid down for the use of reference isotopic analysis methods and for the keeping and updating of the analytical databank.

(41) Member States should ensure the effectiveness of the work of the authorities responsible for wine-sector checks. To that end, check operations should be coordinated between the competent authorities in Member States where several authorities are in charge of wine-sector checks and Member States should designate a single body responsible for liaison between them and with the Commission.

(42) In order to facilitate checks throughout the Union, Member States should take the necessary steps to ensure that the officials of the competent authorities have adequate powers of investigation to guarantee compliance with the rules.

(43) With a view to ensuring traceability of wine products and compliance with Union rules in the wine sector, coordination of checks and access to information by the competent authorities in the wine sector should be maintained. To fully meet this coordinated approach, the various authorities involved in the checks of wine products subject to excise duty should have access to the information on the movements of these products carried out under Directive 2008/118/EC and Regulation (EC) No 684/2009. For this purpose, it is appropriate that account be taken of the computerised system for the movement and surveillance of excisable products set up by Decision No 1152/2003/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council(13).

(44) The interdependence of wine-sector markets and the trade between Member States and third countries calls for close cooperation between the various authorities responsible for checks. For the purpose of effective collaboration between the Member States in applying wine-sector rules, Member States' competent authorities should be able to liaise with competent authorities in another Member State. To this end, the rules governing mutual assistance on request should be laid down. With the aim of simplifying the administration of expenditure relating to the taking and dispatching of samples, analysis and organoleptic testing and employing the services of an expert, the principle should be established that such expenditure is to be borne by the competent authority of the Member State ordering the sampling or the services of an expert.

(45) In order to enhance the effectiveness of mutual assistance of competent authorities, this Regulation should contain a provision on the conclusive force of the findings from checks carried out pursuant to this Regulation in a Member State different from the Member State where the check was carried out.

(46) In order to combat fraud effectively, to avoid serious risks of fraud or to take appropriate action in cases of suspicion of or detected non-compliance of wine products with Union rules, the liaison bodies of the Member States concerned should be able to notify each other about such cases. For this purpose, the Member States concerned should use the information systems made available by the Commission.

(47) Article 64 of Regulation (EU) No 1306/2013 provides for administrative penalties in cases of non-compliance in relation to eligibility criteria, commitments and other obligations resulting from the application of sectorial agricultural legislation. Pursuant to Article 71(4) of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 administrative penalties are to be provided for in relation to non-authorised plantings. In order to ensure the deterrent effect, Member States should be able to graduate those penalties according to the commercial value of the wines produced in the vineyards concerned. The minimum value of those penalties should correspond to the average yearly income per hectare of vine areas at Union level, measured in gross margin per hectare of vine areas. A progressive graduation should be established from this minimum value, depending on the time of non-compliance. Member States should also be given the possibility to apply higher minimum penalties to producers in a certain area, where the minimum value established at Union level represents less than the estimated average yearly income per hectare of the area concerned. Such increase in the minimum value of penalties should be proportional to the estimated average yearly income per hectare for the area where the non-authorised vine area is located.

(48) In view of the need to ensure swift and effective protection of consumers, it is essential to provide for the possibility of suspending the use of the accompanying documents and certification procedures by operators found or suspected of non-compliance with the Union rules on production or transport of wine products or the use of simplified arrangements or electronic procedures for imports in the event of fraud or a health risk to consumers.

(49) In order to ensure an effective application of this Regulation and a proper monitoring of the wine market, penalties with a deterrent effect to be applied by Member States according to the severity and reoccurrence of the non-compliance should be provided for cases where the obligations to keep the inward and outward register, submit declarations or make notifications are not respected.

(50) In order to ensure fair treatment of operators, rules should be laid down for cases of obvious errors and exceptional circumstances.

(51) In accordance with Article 223 of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013, rules should be laid down on the notifications to be made to the Commission by Member States. To this end, it is appropriate to lay down the nature and type of the information to be provided and the conditions of publication of that information.

(52) In order to facilitate the checking of the documents for the import of wine products issued by third countries, the Commission should list and make public the competent bodies, designated bodies or departments and authorised wine producers notified by third countries for the purpose of drawing up such documents. With a view to facilitating the communication and assistance requests between Member States and the Commission, on the one hand, and third countries, on the other hand, the liaison body designated in each third country to be in contact with the Commission and the Member States should also be made public by the Commission.

(53) In order to ensure the quality of the wine products, provisions should be laid down for the implementation of the prohibition of over-pressing of grapes. The verification of the correct application of that prohibition requires an adequate monitoring of the by-products resulting from winemaking and their final use. To this end, rules on the minimum percentage of alcohol contained in the by-products after the pressing of grapes should be fixed, as well as on the conditions for the mandatory disposal of by-products held by any natural or legal persons or groups of persons, under the supervision of Member States' competent authorities. Since such conditions are directly connected with the winemaking process, they should be listed together with the oenological practices and applicable restrictions for the production of wine set out in Regulation (EC) No 606/2009. That Regulation should therefore be amended accordingly.

(54) In the interest of clarity and legal certainty, the provisions of Regulations (EC) No 555/2008, (EC) No 606/2009 and (EC) No 607/2009 that are replaced by this Regulation and Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/274 should be deleted. For the same reason, Regulation (EC) No 436/2009 and Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/560 should be repealed,
