COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 2087/97 of 20 October 1997 amending Regulation (EEC) No 822/87 on the common organization of the market in wine
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (1),
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (2),
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee (3),
Whereas Article 15 (6) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 822/87 of 16 March 1987 on the common organization of the market in wine (4) provides for the adoption of terms under which Member States may allow malic acid to be used; whereas such acid has never been used since the said Regulation entered into force and provision for its use should be discontinued; whereas it should therefore be deleted from Annex VI to the Regulation;
Whereas Article 17 (3) of Regulation (EEC) No 822/87 allows temporary use of a particular deacidification method; whereas experiments in the Member State where it is used have demonstrated its advantages; whereas it should be permanently authorized;
Whereas Article 45 of Regulation (EEC) No 822/87 institutes an aid scheme for use of concentrated and rectified concentrated grape musts to increase alcoholic strength; whereas for rectified concentrated musts from wine-growing zones C III a differentiated aid is provided for; whereas, under the second subparagraph of paragraph 2 of that Article, this treatment is also applicable to rectified concentrated musts produced outside wine-growing zones C III in installations that began production of them before 30 June 1982; whereas this extension was authorized because installations existed outside zone C III which produced musts and the new scheme would have damaged them; whereas there is still justification for this extension, pending the reform of the common organization of the wine market;
Whereas Article 53 of Regulation (EEC) No 822/87 sets entry price control arrangements for grape juices and musts falling within CN codes 2009 60 and 2204 30; whereas, in the absence of representative import markets in the Member States, these arrangements are not geared to the actual market for these products; whereas the arrangements should be adjusted to allow either verification by means other than a flat-rate import value or the calculation of this value on the basis of product prices on the export markets of the third countries of origin;
Whereas Annex VI to Regulation (EEC) No 822/87 provides for the use of animal albumin for the clarification of grape must and wines; whereas it is desirable to determine the nature of the albumins allowed for use in clarification,
