HC Deb 02 February 1983 vol 36 c114W
Mr. Warren

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what is the basis on which duty is payable on English wine; and how this relates to the duty payable on imported wine.

Mr. Bruce-Gardyne

English wine produced from grapes grown in the United Kingdom is liable to the same rate of excise duty as imported wine of the same alcoholic strength.
