EU Faces US Tariffs on Wine, Spirits Amidst Trade Disputes
The US is starting to charge taxes (tariffs) on many products from Europe.
This means things like wine will cost more to sell in America.
The EU is trying to get wine and other products off the list so they don't get taxed.
Negotiations are happening, but it's not certain if they will be successful.
EU expects US tariffs to impact wine and other products.
A 15% US tariff on most EU exports is set to begin.
Negotiations are ongoing for exemptions, particularly for wine.
The US is the largest export destination for European wines.
The agreed tariff is significantly higher than pre-existing rates.
