Summary

HB 1761 updates Mississippi alcohol statutes so holders of native‑wine retailer permits can sell their wines at any tasting room in the same county as the winery and at one additional permanent satellite location anywhere in the state, and they may also sell other alcoholic beverages for on‑premises consumption. The legislation also removes expiration dates and repealing language from several sections that govern festival permits, financial interests in those permits, and the Department of Revenue’s authority to issue them, making those rules permanent. The changes impact native wine producers, festival organizers, distillers, and the state’s alcohol regulatory agency.
