5. Exceptions from the provisions of this Act shall be made in the
case of pure champagne, or sparkling wine, so far as to permit the
use of crystallised sugar in sweetening the same according to usual
custom, but in no other respect.
6. In all sales and contracts for sale, production, or delivery of
products defined in this Act, such products, in the absence of a
written agreement to the contrary, shall be presumed to be pure as
herein defined, and such sale or contracts shall, in the absence of
such an agreement, be void, if it be established that the products so
sold or contracted for were not pure as herein defined. And in such
case the concealment of the true character of such products shall
constitute actual fraud for which damages may be recovered, and in
a judgment for damages, reasonable attorney fees to be fixed by the
Court, shall be taxed as costs.
7. The Controller of the State shall cause to have engraved plates,
from which shall be printed labels which shall set forth that the wine
covered by such labels is pure California wine in accordance with
this Act, and leaving blanks for the name of the particular kind of
wine, and the name or names of the seller of the wine and place of
business. These labels shall be of two forms or shapes, one a narrow
strip to cap over the corks of bottles, the other, round or square,
and sufficiently large, say three inches square, to cover the bungs of
packages in which wine is sold. Such labels shall be furnished upon
proper application to actual residents, and to be used in this State
only, and only to those who are known to be growers, manufacturers,
traders, or handlers, or bottlers of California wine, and such parties
will be required to file a sworn statement with said Controller,
setting forth that his or their written application for such labels is
and will be for his or their sole use and benefit, and that he or they
will not give, sell, or loan such label to any other person or persons
whomsoever. Such labels shall be paid for at the same rate and price
as shall be found to be the actual cost price to the State, and shall
be supplied from time to time as needed upon the written application
of such parties as are before mentioned. Such label when affixed to
bottle or wine package shall be so affixed, that by drawing the
cork from bottle or opening the bung of package, such label shall be
destroyed by such opening; and before affixing such labels all blanks
shall be filled out by stating the variety or kind of wine that is
contained in such bottle or package, and also by the name or names and
Post Office address of such grower, manufacturer, trader, handler, or
bottler of such wine.
