What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
Current law generally prohibits a winery holding a winery permit from having a direct or indirect interest in a "Class A" or "Class B" retail license or establishment.
However, a winery may hold one retail license, which may be either a "Class A" retail license or a "Class B" retail license. A "Class A" license authorizes the retail sale of intoxicating liquor (wine and distilled spirits) for consumption off the premises in original packages and containers. A "Class B" license issued to a winery authorizes the retail sale of wine to be consumed by the glass or in opened containers on the licensed premises and authorizes the retail sale of wine in the original package or container to be consumed off the licensed premises.

This bill authorizes a winery to hold up to six retail licenses, which may be "Class A" licenses or "Class B" licenses or a combination of "Class A" and "Class B" licenses.
