". After salmonella, listeria and other food infections, Northern European health fundamentalists are now directing their attention to the allergies that might be caused by the ingredients present in foodstuffs. Hence, the need for a directive on the labelling of these allergenic additives. Since, however, wine is treated as a food, bottles of wine too would need to be labelled in the name of the right to information concerning the risks of intolerance, particularly to the eggs and fish cited in Annex 3b, which lists the 20 ingredients that present risks. It is true that egg- or fish-based glues are used to eliminate suspensions in wine during production. It is clear, however, that these glues disappear along with the deposits they cause to form in the flocculation process. There is therefore no reason for listing these processing aids on a label since there are no allergens left at the end of the process. Together with the champions of wine growers and of common sense, we have tabled the amendments needed to extricate wine from this phobic and neurotic demand for labelling."@en1
