The regulation, in plain English.

• It opens with the word “ingredients” and lists them in descending order of weight.
• Additives are named by their official functional class: “preservatives and antioxidants: sulphites”, “acidity regulators…”.
• Allergens (sulphites, egg, milk and their derivatives) are emphasised inside the list itself, through distinctive typography — bold, in practice.
• When the full list is given, a separate “Contains: …” statement must not duplicate it.

With E-Label: The form knows the ingredients used in wine and builds the list in the right order, with the official categories and allergens in bold — in all 24 languages.

• Values are expressed per 100 ml, energy in kJ then kcal, in the order set by Annex XV: energy, fat, saturates, carbohydrate, sugars, protein, salt.
• Provided by electronic means, the declaration must keep its tabular format.
• On the bottle, you may show the energy value alone, introduced by the symbol “E”.

With E-Label: The regulatory table is generated automatically per 100 ml, kJ before kcal — and the QR code already carries the line “E (100 ML) = … KJ / … KCAL”.

• Where fat, saturates, carbohydrate, sugars, protein or salt are present in negligible amounts, that row may be replaced by the official statement “Contains negligible amounts of…”, placed in immediate proximity to the table.

With E-Label: The official statement is applied automatically to the nutrients concerned, in the exact wording of each language version of the regulation.

• No user data may be collected or tracked: no cookies, no trackers, no identifiable statistics.
• The page carries no commercial or marketing content. Even a link to the producer’s own website counts as marketing.
• The address must stay valid for the whole life of the product: a printed QR code must never stop answering.

With E-Label: E-Label pages are served with no cookies, no analytics and not one line of marketing; every address is guaranteed for life, even if you change plan.

• The energy value stays printed on the bottle (the symbol “E” is allowed).
• Allergens stay printed on the label (“contains: sulphites”), even when the full list is online.
• Mandatory particulars are printed with an x-height of at least 1.2 mm.
• The QR code sits in the same field of vision as the other mandatory particulars.

With E-Label: These duties play out at your printer: your E-Label account repeats them on every page, so nothing is lost between the screen and the bottle.

• Mandatory particulars must be easily understood by consumers in every Member State where the wine is marketed.
• A wine sold in several EU countries therefore has to be readable in each of those languages.

With E-Label: A single page serves all 24 official EU languages: the phone’s language is detected automatically, a manual picker is there too, and the wording comes from the official language versions of the regulations.
