This bill would change state law to make it easier for small farm wineries to serve alcoholic drinks by the glass at their location. Currently, these wineries may need an additional license to do so, and this bill would remove that requirement for wineries that already hold a retail drink license. Who it may affect: small farm winery owners and their customers.
