Overview

Heading 2204 encompasses wines derived from fresh grapes, including those fortified with additional alcohol, as well as grape must intended for uses other than direct consumption as juice (which falls under heading 2009). This category specifically addresses alcoholic beverages produced through the fermentation of grape sugars. It is crucial to differentiate these from non-alcoholic grape juices or concentrates classified elsewhere.

Within the broader Chapter 22, which covers a range of beverages, spirits, and vinegars, heading 2204 stands out by its specific focus on grape-based alcoholic products. Unlike other alcoholic beverages within Chapter 22, such as those derived from cereals (e.g., beer, spirits) or other fruits, this heading is exclusively for products originating from grapes. The distinction is based on the raw material used and the primary fermentation process.

The subcategories under 2204 provide further refinement based on the characteristics of the wine or grape must. For instance, subheadings differentiate between sparkling wines, characterized by significant carbonation, and still wines. Additionally, provisions are made for grape must where fermentation has been intentionally halted or prevented, often through the addition of alcohol, to preserve sweetness or achieve specific flavor profiles, as well as for other forms of grape must not intended for immediate consumption as juice.
