AN ACT AUTHORIZING SALES OF CONNECTICUT WINES IN GROCERY STORES.

HB 5783 would amend Connecticut law to allow grocery stores with existing beer permits to sell wines produced in Connecticut. This directly affects grocery stores holding beer permits, enabling them to offer locally made wines alongside beer. The key provision changes section 30-20 of the general statutes to explicitly include Connecticut wines under the permitted sales for these grocery stores. The bill makes no other changes to wine sales regulations or licensing requirements.
