ASAE (Food and Economic Safety Authority) carried out an operation called "Safe Label", which resulted in the seizure of a total of 20,226 liters of wine. The seized wine included red, white and rosé varieties, which was ready to be introduced to the market.
The reason for the seizure was the omission of the product's origin, that is, the lack of mandatory information on the labels regarding the provenance of the wine. This omission represents a violation of the labeling standards that are mandatory in the food sector.
ASAE's operation aims to ensure food safety and consumer protection, ensuring that the information provided on products is correct and transparent. The lack of indication of a product's origin may mislead consumers about the quality and provenance of what they purchase.
This action is part of the inspection work that ASAE regularly carries out to ensure compliance with the legislation in force in the food and economic sector, thus protecting consumer rights and market integrity.
