SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)

Alcoholic beverage control; creates new wholesale wine license.  Creates a new restricted wholesale wine license that authorizes the licensee to provide wholesale wine distribution services to winery and farm winery licensees, provided that no more than 3,000 cases of wine produced by a winery or farm winery licensee shall be distributed by the corporation in any one year. The bill requires the Commissioner of the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services to form a nonprofit nonstock corporation that will hold this new license to promote, develop, and sustain markets for licensed Virginia wineries and farm wineries. The bill also allows certain licensees to deliver or ship beer or wine from one or more premises identified in the license. The bill sets the state license tax for this new license and requires the ABC Board to adopt emergency regulations to implement the provisions of the bill.  This bill is identical to SB1413 and contains an emergency clause.
