Frequently asked questions
The electronic nutrition label is a special website with information about a product, for a specific market. The electronic label is accessed by consumers scanning the QR code printed on the product label with a smartphone.
The QR-CODE is a square barcode that you add to the back label of your bottle. Anyone with a phone will be able to open their phone's camera app, point the camera at the QR code, and a link to your electronic label will appear to view the nutritional information.
The packages we offer are based on the total number of e-tags you need across all your harvests, not just each year.
So let's say you're going to sell 3 new wines every year.
First year (2024)
You have 3 new wines for sale, so you will need 3 e-labels. This is covered completely free of charge as part of the 3 free wine labels.
Second year (2025)
Next year (2025) let's say you launch 3 more new wines from a new vintage, as you'll also keep the existing 3 wines from 2024. That's 6 e-labels, so you'll need to upgrade to the 50 e pack -label. (BUSINESS 50)
Compared to other digital tag platforms, with us, once you need to have more than 100 tags active, you'll switch to the unlimited plan and never pay more than €199 per year (plus VAT)

Yes, you can create as many QR codes as you need with just the wine trade name for each wine you plan to label.

You can also modify the information at any time if you need to, and since it's an electronic label you don't need to print a new QR-CODE on your physical label again!
Yes. We have thoroughly checked the relevant legislation and the new regulation.

If you use the digital platform (QR Code Labeling for EU Wines) to provide the ingredient list and nutrition declaration, you should also include certain information on the physical label:
You should include the energy value on the physical label. The energy value can be expressed using the symbol “E” for energy.
For the list of ingredients, you must include the indication of the elements referred to in Article 9(1)(c) of Regulation (EU) No. 1169/2011 (the possibly allergenic ingredients). The word “contains” should be included followed by the name of the substance or product as listed in Annex II to Regulation (EU) No. 1169/2011, which refers to substances or products that cause allergies or intolerances.
In addition there should be compliance with the remaining mandatory labeling requirements e.g. the name of the product, the alcohol content, etc.
We suggest contacting an Oenological Laboratory or Chemistry which, through a chemical analysis, is able to calculate the calorific value as well as other indicators of the wine. You can refer to it here
However, the platform has a computer for wine energy. You can enter the alcoholic strength, the amount of sugars, acidity, polyols (glycerine) and we calculate the energy value for you, based on the EU conversion factors.
