Since the passing of the Act 16 & 17 Vict. c. 106, the several growths of wine have ceased to be specified in the entries at the Custom House. The existing Tariff only requires the distinction of "Red" and "White" wine. The countries whence imported are here specified as a guide to the place of production.

Since the passing of the Act 16 & 17 Vict, c. 106, the several growths of wine have ceased to be specified in the Entries at the Custom-house, the only distinction recognized by the existing Tariff being that of Foreign and British Colonial produce, under the respective heads of "Red" and "White" wine.
