Dear Mr. Bearak:

     In your letter dated April 22, 1991 you requested a tariff
classification ruling.         
    
     Product information was included with your original request

de-alcoholized wine, containing less than 0.5 percent alcohol by
volume.  The brand is "0%", and includes red and white wines
available in 750 milliliter bottles packed twelve to a case.  

     The applicable subheading for the "0%" de-alcoholized wine
will be 2202.90.9090, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United
States (HTS), which provides for waters...and other nonalcoholic
beverages...other...other... other.  The rate of duty will be 0.3
cents per liter.   

     This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Section
177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).

     A copy of this ruling letter should be attached to the entry
documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported.  If the
documents have been filed without a copy, this ruling should be
brought to the attention of the Customs officer handling the
transaction.

                                   Sincerely,
