Wine producers considering legal action for breaching the single market

Last week the health minister signed off on plans to print enhanced health labels on every bottle of wine sold in Ireland. It means extra costs for some vineyards - especially smaller ones and might even mean they’ll stop selling in Ireland. That’s why some wine producers in Italy are taking a case to the World Trade Organisation and others are considering legal action for breaching the single market. Ignacio Sanchez Recarte is the Secretary General of the the Comité Européen des Entreprises Vins, which represents winemakers in Europe and joined Joe Lynam live from Brussels.
