Proposed amendments to the OIV List of Vine Varieties and their Synonyms
The Australian Grape and Wine Authority (AGWA) are proposing the following amendments to the OIV List
of Vine Varieties and their Synonyms following an independent expert review. Proposed variety deletions
were assessed to be invalid synonyms.
As per Regulation 20(1) of the Australian Grape and Wine Authority Regulations 1981, grape varieties used
in the description and presentation of an Australian wine must be recognised and documented on the OIV
List.
Comments on the proposed amendments can be directed to Steve Guy, General Manager, Regulatory
Services – [email protected].
The comment period will remain open until Friday, 19 September 2014.
The updated OIV List is available for download via the AGWA website – www.agwa.net.au
