While Congress is in its long August recess, there’s still work to be done in DC on the regulatory front. Executive Vice President and Director of Regulatory Affairs Michael Kaiser submitted two long, detailed documents to the federal Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) about the possible addition of information on wine labels. Specifically, the two issues involved the possibility of “Alcohol Facts” statements on the labeling of wine, spirits and beer; and the possibility of “Major Food Allergen” labeling. WineAmerica’s overall position: “WineAmerica is in favor of both allergen and ingredient disclosure, as long as it is done in a way that is not harmful to the American wine industry. Only agents that are detectable in the finished product should need to be disclosed by a producer. Additionally, as we stated in our comments for Notice 237, an off-label, web-based disclosure is the best option for the wine industry. This is already occurring in the Euro

After veraison, as grapes develop their enticing color in the vineyard, the age-old battle between man and nature — in the form of hungry birds — begins. Vintners and farmers have experimented with gas cannons, reflective flash tape, sonic sound systems, drones and netting to scare off their voracious flying opponents. But, the noise of cannons and sonics can irritate neighbors, and drones and netting are labor intensive, making them too expensive to maintain. Nature often provides the best solution, and in the case of birds raiding vineyards, the natural solution is birds of prey like falcons. Small birds' instinctive fear of their natural predators causes the flock to shift direction, saving the crop from invasion. After five decades in the bird abatement business, Falcon Crop Protection has an intimate knowledge of bird behavior and has brought this knowledge to wine country after their marketing manager moved to Healdsburg, launching Falcon Crop Protection to help
