Wine labels are important sources of information for consumers. Some information are required by law:

1- « Burgundy Wine » or « Great Burgundy Wine » (Inner professional agreement)

2- Product description (the name of appellation followed by “Appellation Controlée” or “Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée “)

3- Health warning (advising that pregnant women refrain from drinking alcohol)

4- Alcohol content, expressed in % vol.

5- Country of origin for wine export

6- Nominal Volume

7- Name, address and title of bottler

8- Allergen notice (if SO2 > 10 mg/l)

Moreover, batch numbers (on label, rear label, neck label, glass or capsule…) are mandatory as Burgundy wines are all Appellation of Controlled Origin.
