Abstract
Every translation requires a prior process that facilitates the
translation work and contributes to its correct execution at all levels.
Label translation requires a very particular and characteristic process in
which regulations play a very important role. In particular, wine labels
have gained more visibility due to consumer demands and market conditions.
Closely tied with this is the remarkable growth the wine sector experienced
in the recent years, in particular within the EU wine market. There has been
a large interest in the vitiviniculture industry, and the marketing of such
products has therefore increased. This in turn makes it necessary to draw up
which are the regulatory obligations we have to comply with when exporting a
wine product which is totally linked to labelling and its translation
process.
