UK supermarkets reach settlement in wine dispute with French champagne firm

Supermarkets Asda and Morrisons have reached a settlement with a French champagne producer after becoming mixed up in a legal dispute about wine, a judge has said.

Champagne Louis Roederer claimed that a Spanish wine maker called J Garcia Carrion (JGC) had breached its trade mark right to the use of the word “Cristal” by importing “Cristalino” wine into the UK.
