Navigating the Regulatory Landscape for Wineries Entering the Spirits Market
Samuel D. Long · 1 min read
When wineries consider diversifying into the spirits market, navigating the regulatory landscape is highly challenging. The specific licensing requirements differ significantly from wine production. Wineries need to apply for a distiller’s license, which entails compliance with both federal and state laws concerning production, distribution, and sale of spirits. OR they can partner with Corning & Company, avoiding the need for this complexity altogether.
Partnering with Corning & Company can provide several advantages for wineries looking to diversify into spirits:

Market Access: Corning & Company has established relationships and distribution networks in the spirits market, which can be different than wine, facilitating easier and faster market entry.
