Press Release
(TRENTON) - Assembly Democratic legislation sponsored by John Burzichelli, John Wisniewski and Celeste Riley to permit direct shipping by New Jersey wineries has been signed into law.
The new law (A-4436), which was approved 51-18-4 by the Assembly last week, revises the statutes governing the sale and distribution of products by New Jersey wineries and creates a new out-of-state winery license governing New Jersey sales by wineries licensed elsewhere.
"This law balances the modern needs of our wine industry with the need of liquor stores and distributors and positions both for even more economic, job-creating success," said Burzichelli (D-Gloucester/Cumberland/Salem). "This is pro-consumer and pro-business, and it ensures our blossoming wine industry will be competitive and modern. It's a common sense approach."
