PAG LIN 1 1 Section 1. Section 123.56, subsection 1, Code 2003, is 1 2 amended to read as follows: 1 3 1. Subject to rules of the division, manufacturers of 1 4 native wines from grapes, cherries, other fruits or other 1 5 fruit juices, vegetables, vegetable juices, dandelions, 1 6 clover, honey, or any combination of these ingredients, 1 7 holding a class "A" wine permit as required by this chapter, 1 8 may sell, keep, or offer for sale and deliver the wine. Sales 1 9 may be made at retail for off-premises consumption when sold 1 10 on the premises of the manufacturer, or in a retail 1 11 establishment operated by the manufacturerwhich is no closer1 12than five miles from an existing native winery. Sales may 1 13 also be made to class "A" or retail wine permittees or liquor 1 14 control licensees as authorized by the class "A" wine permit. 1 15 Sec. 2. Section 123.179, subsection 2, Code 2003, is 1 16 amended to read as follows: 1 17 2. The annual permit fee for a class "B" wine permit is 1 18 five hundred dollars. However, a person who has been issued a 1 19 class "C" beer permit and who sells wine produced by a 1 20 vineyard located in this state for consumption off the 1 21 premises shall be assessed an annual permit fee corresponding 1 22 to the permit fee the person is assessed pursuant to section 1 23 123.134, subsection 3, for the sale of beer for consumption 1 24 off the premises. 1 25 EXPLANATION 1 26 This bill provides for the deletion of a requirement that 1 27 sales of wine by manufacturers of native wines made for off- 1 28 premises consumption at a retail establishment operated by the 1 29 manufacturer may occur only when the retail establishment is 1 30 no closer than five miles from an existing native winery. 1 31 The bill also provides that a person who has been issued a 1 32 class "B" retail wine permit, which authorizes the permittee 1 33 to sell wine in original containers for consumption off the 1 34 premises, and who also holds a class "C" beer permit, which 1 35 authorizes the permittee as a grocery store or pharmacy to 2 1 sell beer at retail for off-the-premises consumption, shall be 2 2 assessed an annual wine permit fee corresponding to the level 2 3 of the fee assessed for the class "C" beer permit. The bill 2 4 provides that this provision applies to a permittee selling 2 5 wine produced by vineyards located in this state. The 2 6 practical effect of the bill would be to reduce the level of 2 7 the wine permit fee, because the fees assessed for class "C" 2 8 beer permits are lower than the $500 fee assessed for a class 2 9 "B" wine permit. 2 10 LSB 2669SV 80 2 11 rn/sh/8
