Board Charts New Wine Sales Rules and Restrictions

State Liquor Board Chairman T. McCall Frazier announced new wine sales rules effective July 1. Sandwich shops and confectioneries without regular restaurant service will be affected.

The measure targets so called wine saloons and seeks to curb youth access and pocket bottle theft among workers.
