This bill proposes an amendment to Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 340A.412, to allow the transfer of wine between liquor stores that are commonly owned. Specifically, it permits holders of an off-sale intoxicating liquor license to transfer wine between their own licensed premises under certain conditions:

1. Same Ownership – The transferring and receiving liquor stores must be owned by the same licensee.
   
2. Notification Requirement – The licensee must notify both the wholesaler from whom the wine was purchased and the Division of Alcohol and Gambling Enforcement in writing about the transfer.
   
3. Limited Transfers – Each licensed premises can only transfer wine once every three months.

The bill was introduced in the Minnesota Senate and referred to the Commerce and Consumer Protection Committee for further consideration.
