Summary

The bill lets a winegrower, a family member, or an employee sell wine at state‑approved certified farmers’ markets, even if the grapes weren’t grown by that winegrower. It also caps how much wine can be sold, how often tastings can occur, and requires responsible‑service training for anyone conducting tastings.
