Wine Bottles to Add Warning Labels

All wine producers, including those of beer, sherry, ratafee and traditional Chinese white wine, have to add warning labels on wine bottles starting from October 1, 2006.

Recently the National Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine and Standardization of China released a new general rule on wine bottle's labels. New labels should include the wine names, alcoholic content, product standard numbers, qualified grades and warning words. It also gives specific instructions on spirits' food additives, etc. Glass-packed beer is required to mark warning labels like "Fragile," " Handle with Care," etc..

It also advises wine producers to add warning words like " Excessive Drinking Harms Health," "Children and Pregnant Women Had Better Not to Drink."
