ANNEX ISupplementary provisions
ANNEX I In the specification for the protected geographical indication ‘Amarene Brusche di Modena’, the following amendments are approved: Method of production The required sugar content for the fruit used for the production of the ‘Amarene Brusche di Modena’ PGI should be reduced at the time of picking by 2° Brix in years where the cumulative rainfall was higher than 80 mm in June. At the processing stage, sugar content of 2° Brix less than that measured at the time of picking is permitted, if the fruit is subject to hydrocooling. In order to avoid misinterpretation, it is specified that the amount of sugar (saccharose) which may be added prior to the concentration process must not exceed 35 % of the product. Labelling The specification indicates that for the purpose of packaging the jam ‘Amarene Brusche di Modena’, containers using formats and materials different from those previously provided for may also be used, provided that they are suitable for food use. This will enable producers to adapt the packaging to constantly changing market requirements.
