(4)It is clear from Articles 3(9) and 4(8) of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/592 that Article 2 of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1150 applies mutatis mutandis to the measures ‘distillation of wine in case of crisis’ and ‘aid for crisis storage of wine’ respectively. These provisions seek to ensure that the exceptional measures follow as closely as possible the rules applicable to the measures provided for in Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013. However, Article 2(1) of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/600 temporarily derogates from Article 2(1) of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1150 by allowing Member States to include or change measures in their national support programmes whenever necessary. Consequently, in order to ensure that the exceptional measures are implemented in the same way as any other existing support measure, Article 2(1) of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/600 applies also to ‘distillation of wine in case of crisis’ and ‘aid for crisis storage of wine’. It is appropriate to clarify this by including an explicit reference to those two exceptional measures.
