To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what steps she plans to take to support small wine companies following changes to alcohol duty rates.
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what steps she plans to take to support small wine companies following changes to alcohol duty rates.
Following the end of the wine easement on 1 February some administrative work will be required for small wine companies, due to the need to make different calculations for wines of different strengths between 11.5% and 14.5% ABV to establish the level of duty. This extra step is one that was considered in detail during the consultation period. 
To reduce small wine companies burdens, HMRC will accept the ABV on the label of the bottle for the calculation of duty. Whilst the new system of wine labelling allows product labelling to 0.1 per cent ABV, this is optional, and wine can still be labelled to the nearest 0.5 per cent ABV.

The wine industry makes a vital contribution to our economy and society, which is recognised in the tax system. Ahead of the Autumn Budget 2024, the Government heard representations to increase alcohol duty by more than inflation to tackle increasing alcohol-related deaths, as well as economic inactivity. The Government is also mindful of the cost-of-living pressures on people who drink responsibly and on hospitality businesses and alcohol producers. Balancing these pressures, the Chancellor announced that she would uprate alcohol duty in line with RPI inflation.
The wine easement also ended on 1 February 2025. This was a transitional measure, which gave the wine industry over two years to adapt to the new system.  HMRC have worked closely with industry to support this transition.

At the recent Budget, the Chancellor announced that she would uprate alcohol duty in line with RPI inflation on 1 February 2025, except on qualifying draught products. This decision weighed the impacts on businesses, cost-of-living pressures on people who drink moderately and responsibly, and the public health case for higher duties to tackle increasing alcohol-related deaths, as well as economic inactivity.
