SB 171 - This act defines a "wine manufacturer" as a person, partnership, association, or corporation, who has properly procured a license, and who manufactures in excess of two hundred gallons of wine per calendar year. Currently, it is a violation for a person with a license to sell liquor to sell liquor, or offer to sell liquor, brewed, manufactured or distilled by one manufacturer in substitution for, or with the representation that any such liquor is the product of another brewer, manufacturer, or distiller. Under this act, it shall not be a violation if such licensee sells, or offers to sell, wine or brandy, as long as the manufacturer of the wine or brandy has provided the Supervisor of Alcohol and Tobacco Control with a copy of the certificate of label approval issued by the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau, and if necessary, has properly registered such label or name with the appropriate state agency.
