Alcoholic beverages; authorize the direct shipment of wine.

SB 2073 (Mississippi) would allow wine producers and retailers holding a valid permit to ship wine directly to Mississippi residents. It requires a special "direct wine shipper" permit from the Department of Revenue, limits shipments to 24 nine-liter cases per person annually, and prohibits shipping beer or other alcohol. The bill mandates age verification (21+ for delivery), specific labeling, annual sales reporting, and requires that wine be for personal consumption only. It also creates a tax on direct shipments, with some revenue directed to mental health programs. The bill died in committee on February 4, 2025, and did not become law.
