Imported wine may face measures

An anti-dumping application from the wine industry, already sent to the Ministry of Commerce, may be acted on this year, the China Securities Journal reported on Tuesday.

The wine industry lodged an anti-dumping appeal on imported wine some time ago and the European Union's anti-dumping investigation into China may lead the authorities to act on it, some business insiders said.

The anti-dumping appeal will not affect the high-end market, with its world-renowned chateaus, but lesser imported wine will be hit.
