——Explore the RFID Technology on this World Wine Day

Dear winery owners, importers, and brand managers:

With World Wine Day approaching, the demand for premium gift wines surges — and so do counterfeits. Fake labels, refilled genuine bottles, and tag reuse are destroying brand equity.

With @NXP NFC NTAG Series, we offer a tiered anticounterfeiting solution for wines of all price points. From entrylevel to ultrapremium – protect every bottle with a digital identity.

Why NFC wine anticounterfeiting tags?
Consumers simply tap their phone to verify authenticity, view provenance, and even get food pairing tips. But the real magic lies in the chiplevel security.

How to Select the suitable anti-counterfeit NFC tag for your Wines?

Entry-Level Protection: NTAG 213/215/216

Best for: Everyday table wines, youngdrinking wines (Wine value FYI:< $30)

How it works:

32bit password protection for memory access

ECCbased NXP originality signature for static authentication

Unique UID and NFC counter for basic traceability

Result: Prevents mass cloning, affordable perbottle cost, easy taptoverify.

Mid-Level Protection: NTAG 223 DNA

Best for: Premium reserves, midtier collectibles (Wine value FYI:30–150)

How it works:

AES128 cryptography for secure data exchange

SUN (Secure Unique NFC) message authentication – dynamic CMAC changes with every tap, making each read unique

CC EAL3+ certified silicon – resists semiinvasive attacks

Result: Onetaponecode – even if data is sniffed over the air, it cannot be reused. Effectively kills electronic cloning.

High-Level Protection: NTAG 424 DNA or NTAG 424 DNA TagTamper

Best for: Ultrapremium, auctiongrade, limitededition wines (Wine value FYI:> $150)

Two options to match your risk level:

A) NTAG 424 DNA (standard high security)

Encrypted SUN – UID and user data are fully encrypted (AES128), preventing any traceability

Mutual authentication + secure channel – tag and reader verify each other before any data exchange

CC EAL4+ certified – resistant to even invasive physical attacks

B) NTAG 424 DNA TagTamper (tamperevident addition)

Everything from NTAG 424 DNA PLUS

Conductive tamper loop – physically embedded in the label or capsule. Once peeled or broken, the chip irreversibly stores an “opened” status.

Perfect for fighting “genuine bottle refilled with fake wine” scams

Result: Absolute authenticity + optional physical opening detection.
