EU Said to Push for a Spirits-Wine Tariff Deal Touted by Arnault

The European Union is pushing to get more exemptions from the 15% tariff agreed with the US this week, with wines and spirits a top priority.

The bloc, backed by industry leaders such as LVMH’s Bernard Arnault, is seeking a deal that would take the spirits and wine sectors at least back to the way they operated before US President Donald Trump’s Liberation Day tariff announcements, people familiar with the matter said.
