The holder of a class "A" wine permit may manufacture in this state wine having an alcoholic content greater than seventeen percent by weight for shipment outside this state. All class "A" premises shall be located within the state. A class "B" wine permit allows the holder to sell wine at retail for consumption off the premises. A class "B" wine permittee who also holds a class "E" liquor control license may sell wine to class "A", class "B", and class "C" liquor control licensees for resale for consumption on the premises. A class "B" wine permittee who also holds a class "E" liquor control license may sell wine to class "A", class "B", and class "C" liquor control licensees in quantities of less than one case of any wine brand but not more than one such sale shall be made to the same liquor control licensee in a twenty-four hour period. A class "B" wine permittee shall not sell wine to other class "B" wine permittees.
A class "A" wine permittee shall be required to deliver wine to a class "B" wine permittee, and a class "B" wine permittee shall be required to accept delivery of wine from a class "A" wine permittee, only at the licensed premises of the class "B" wine permittee. Except as specifically permitted by the division upon good cause shown, delivery or transfer of wine from an unlicensed premises to a licensed "B" wine permittee's premises, or from one licensed "B" wine permittee's premises to another licensed "B" wine permittee's premises, even if there is common ownership of all of the premises by one class "B" wine permittee, is prohibited. A class "B" wine permittee who also holds a class "E" liquor control license shall keep and maintain records for each sale of wine to liquor control licensees showing the name of the establishment to which wine was sold, the date of sale, and the brands and number of bottles sold to the liquor control licensee.
When a class "B" wine permittee who also holds a class "E" liquor control license sells wine to a class "A", class "B", or class "C" liquor control licensee, the liquor control licensee shall sign a report attesting to the purchase. The class "B" wine permittee who also holds a class "E" liquor control license shall submit to the division, on forms supplied by the division, not later than the tenth of each month a report stating each sale of wine to class "A", class "B", and class "C" liquor control licensees during the preceding month, the date of each sale, and the brands and numbers of bottles with each sale.
