2204.21.50.15 - White

This HTS subcategory, 2204.21.50.15, specifically classifies white wines that are not fortified, made from fresh grapes, and are presented in containers holding two liters or less. Crucially, these wines must have an alcoholic strength by volume not exceeding 14 percent and a value of no more than $1.05 per liter. This classification applies to the product as it is bottled and ready for retail sale.

Distinction from its sibling category, 2204.21.50.05, lies in the visual characteristic of the wine. While 2204.21.50.05 covers red wines meeting the same volume, alcoholic strength, and value criteria, this category is exclusively for wines exhibiting white or lighter hues. The sibling category 2204.21.50.25, "Other," would encompass any other wine within this specific level of detail that doesn't fall under the "Red" or "White" distinctions, potentially including rosé or other variations if applicable.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification at this level is definitive for white wines meeting all the stipulated volume, alcoholic strength, and value thresholds. Importers and exporters should ensure that all these criteria are met for accurate classification under this specific code.
