The European Commission on 19 January 2005 adopted a partly positive and partly negative decision concerning aid granted by France for dealing with the sales crisis of 'Rivesaltes' wines in the period 1996-2000. Aid for the promotion of 'Rivesaltes' and some of the aid for reconverting vineyards were found compatible with EU State aid rules. Aid paid per hectare to farmers who sold their product as table wine was considered illegal. |
