Brussels, 25/02/2016 (Agence Europe) - On Thursday 25 February, the European Commission called on Greece to amend its Compulsory Law 6085/1934 which prevents individual wine growers in the island of Samos, Greece, from producing and marketing wine independently. This law obliges Samos wine growers to be members of local cooperatives which in turn have to deliver their entire must and grapes production to Samos UVC, which has exclusive rights on the production and marketing of Samian wine. The Commission has sent a letter of formal notice, the first stage of the infringement procedure. If Greece fails to provide a satisfactory response within two months, the Commission may send to the Greek authorities a reasoned opinion. (Original version in French by Lionel Changeur)
