Gallo roept wijnen terug uit Japan

Gallo heeft glas in haar wijn gevonden.

Ze roept twee wijnsoorten terug uit Japan na glasdeeltjes te hebben gevonden in 2 flessen uit 19000 geteste flessen. Nog geen klachten van klanten.

Netjes toch van ze…

E. & J. Gallo quietly announced last week the recall of its Redwood Creek brand in Japan "due to the possibility of small glass particles" in the wines. Glass was found in two of 19,000 bottles tested, according to a Gallo statement, and the recalled wines include the Redwood Creek Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Chardonnay in 750ml bottles. Suntory, which is Gallo's distributor in Japan, voluntarily recalled the wines, and said there were "no consumer complaints and no reports of harm." While Redwood Creek wines are available in the United States, Gallo maintains the potentially affected products were sold exclusively in Japan. Gallo spokesperson Susan Hensley declined to answer questions such as how the problem was detected if no consumers complained or where the wines were produced and bottled. But the official statement said emphatically: "We are confident we have found and remedied the cause of the problem."
