In order to allow time for producers to adapt to the new requirements concerning the designation of grapevine products with a reduced alcohol content, those new requirements should start to apply 18 months from the date of entry into force of this amending Regulation. It is also appropriate to provide transitional rules to allow grapevine products labelled prior to the application of the new requirements to continue to be placed on the market until stocks are exhausted.
