New wine laws ‘explained’

By Mark Fisher | Tuesday, October 2, 2007, 08:48 AM

The Ohio Department of Commerce Division of Liquor Control has attempted to explain Ohio’s new wine-shipping laws, and frankly, it’s a hoot.

I welcome translations.

No one can blame the Division of Liquor Control folks. They’re just trying to make sense themselves of what the the legislators foisted upon them, in a law that received no meaningful public scrutiny whatsoever because of the way it was slipped into the state’s budget bill.

Actually, the folks at ShipCompliantBlog.com have attempted to translate the new law, and their interpretation is helpful.

It’s just a shame that any of this confusion had to happen at all.

Cheers!
