Bill Drops Limits on Interstate Wine Sales
California lawmakers approved legislation that would drop restrictions on interstate sales of wine and bring state law into compliance with a recent U.S. Supreme Court decision.
The measure by Sen. Wesley Chesbro (D-Arcata) would allow out-of-state vintners to sell directly to California residents by obtaining a $10 permit. Current law allows California residents to buy up to two cases of wine a month from wineries in other states if those states also allow California vintners to sell directly to their residents.
