Is registration of this trade mark contrary to EU wine labelling regulations?

Continuing its recent trend towards themed issues, the April 2005 European Trade Reports, published monthly by Sweet & Maxwell, carries ten decisions which share the common theme of opposition. Four are appeals to the Court of First Instance against decisions of OHIM's Opposition Division; another three are OHIM Opposition Decisions themselves. Of the remainder, two are British and the third Irish. Highlights include an attempt to prevent the registration of Mezzacorona as a trade mark for wine in the UK on the ground that it is illegal under EU regulations on wine labelling and a heavyweight scrap between DIESEL and DIESELIT for flat irons in the EU

Comments will not be allowed if the contravene the IPKat policy that readers' comments should not be obscene or defamatory; they should not consist of ad hominem attacks on members of the blog team or other comment-posters and they should make a constructive contribution to the discussion of the post on which they purport to comment.

It is also the IPKat policy that comments should not be made completely anonymously, and users should use a consistent name or pseudonym (which should not itself be defamatory or obscene, or that of another real person), either in the "identity" field, or at the beginning of the comment. Current practice is to, however, allow a limited number of comments that contravene this policy, provided that the comment has a high degree of relevance and the comment chain does not become too difficult to follow.
