Hill, Carneros, Ranch & The TTB: A Clarification

Nate Rippey at Carneros Vintners emailed me to say that he had been getting concerned inquiries about the TTB’s sanctions against Hill Wine Company (TTB Carpet Bombs Hill Wine Co With Felony Allegations).

The TTB’s actions were against only the Hill Wine Company permits dealing with their  own wine making at those custom-crush wineries. No TTB action in that case was taken against Carneros Vintners and The Ranch Winery.
