International and New Zealand Regulations for CMC food grade in wine
International and New Zealand Regulations for CMC food grade in wine
CMC food grade has been assessed by the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA). The most recent assessment was at its 35th meeting (WHO 1990). At this meeting, JECFA established an ADI of ‘not specified’ reflecting the low toxicity and history of safe use of this additive in food. 
CMC food grade is approved for use in wine in the European Union (EU 2009).
In New Zealand, winemakers must comply with the Wine Act 2003 and the Regulations, Specifications and notices made under this Act. This Act does not address additives and therefore this application does not impact on New Zealand-specific legislation. However, all wine sold in New Zealand must meet the composition and labelling requirements of the Code.
