RESOLUTION OIV-OENO 723-2024

UPDATE OF MONOGRAPH AND CODE ON PROTEIN OF PLANT ORIGIN (WITHDRAWAL OF WHEAT)

WARNING: This resolution modifies the following resolutions:
- OENO 28/2004 – CODEX – PROTEIN PLANT ORIGIN

- OIV-OENO 495-2013 - MONOGRAPH ON PROTEIN PLANT ORIGIN - MODIFICATION OF THE FILE

- OENO 08/2004 FINING USING PROTEINS OF PLANT ORIGIN

-OENO 567A-2016 DISTINCTION BETWEEN ADDITIVES AND PROCESSING AIDS

CONSIDERING article 2, paragraph IV of the Agreement of 3rd April 2001 establishing the International Organisation of Vine and Wine,

ON THE PROPOSAL of the "Food Safety" Expert Group and “Specification” Experts Group,

CONSIDERING the works of the “Food Safety” Expert group, especially the recommendation on the potentially allergenic risk of wheat protein as fining agent in wine,

CONSIDERING the CODEX Alimentarius Code of practice on food allergen management for food business operators – CXC 80-2020,

CONSIDERING the OIV resolution OENO 08/2004, and OIV 567A-2016 regarding the use of proteins of plant origin as fining agents,

CONSIDERING the OIV resolution OENO 28/2004 and OIV-OENO 495-2013, regarding the monograph of proteins of plant origin,

CONSIDERING the OIV resolution OIV-ECO 648-2020, regarding the labelling of potentially allergenic additives and residues,

CONSIDERING that other proteins of plant origin than wheat are available for the concerned purpose,

AT THE PROPOSAL OF the Commission Oenology;

DECIDES to remove wheat protein of the OIV monographs as fining agent, and all OIV documents, including the International Oenological Codex,

DECIDES to modify resolutions OENO 28/2004 and OIV-OENO 495-2013 and consequently the Part I – Monographs, Protein plant origin, COEI-1-PROVEG Protein plant origin from wheat, peas, and potatoes, by removing the strikethrough text as follows:

TITLE : PROTEIN PLANT ORIGIN FROM WHEAT, PEAS and POTATOES

1.      OBJECT, ORIGIN AND FIELD OF APPLICATION

The plant protein matter described in this monograph is extracted from wheat (Triticum vulgaris), peas (Pisum sativum), or potatoes (Solanum tuberosum). It is mainly made up of proteins and may contain, as minority constituents, carbohydrates (fibres, starch, sugars), fats and minerals. It is intended for human consumption.

DECIDES to withdraw the reference of Wheat protein in the resolution OIV 657A-2016 and to modify resolutions 08/2004 “Fining using proteins of plant origin” by removing “Protein plant origin from wheat: processing aid” peas, and potatoes, by removing the strikethrough text as follows:

The classification should be read as follow:

Classification:

  • Protein of plant origin from peas: processing aid
  • Protein of plant origin from potatoes: processing aid
