HB 161 Florida House · 2025 Regular Session

Wine Container Size Limitations

HB 161 aimed to revise an exception allowing certain large wine containers (like 5.16-gallon reusable containers or specific glass sizes) under Florida's existing wine container size law. The bill would have updated this exception but did not propose new restrictions or affect consumers directly. However, the bill was withdrawn on February 11, 2025, before advancing, as companion legislation (CS/SB 578) was passed instead. The current law, unchanged by this bill, still prohibits selling wine in containers over 1 gallon unless they meet the specified exception sizes.
