A 4357 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Allows instructional wine making facilities to sell wine for on premises consumption at certain events and donate wine to non-profits and charitable organizations.

This bill modifies New Jersey's alcohol licensing rules to allow instructional wine making facilities (which operate under restricted brewery licenses) to sell wine for on-premises consumption at certain events and donate wine to non-profits or charitable organizations. Currently, these facilities can only offer samples at events, but this change would permit actual sales during approved events and formal wine donations. The key provision expands their existing limited sales rights under Section 1c of the licensing law, specifically adding "sell for on-premises consumption" and "donate wine" to their permitted activities. It directly affects instructional wine making facilities operating under restricted brewery licenses, which are typically linked to restaurants. The bill is currently in committee and has not yet been voted on.
