]]> Comment on Legislative Call to Action HB 2537 – Please call today! by Jim Johjnson http://txwinelover.com/2013/05/legislative-call-to-action-hb-2537-please-call-today/#comment-25621 Jim Johjnson Thu, 16 May 2013 05:03:04 +0000 http://txwinelover.com/?p=5440#comment-25621 I support the bill for two reasons.

1) There are wineries in this state who are passing wine through their facilities for out of state interests and in the process bypassing the middle tier of the three tier system.

2) There are “wineries” in this state who harvest no grapes, produce no wines and exist for the sole purpose of buying and reselling wine, much as a retailer would do but enjoying the shipping privileges of a real winery.

Not every Texas winery opposes this bill and in fact the bill is supported by the Texas Hill Country Wine Trail.
