TTB WINE INDUSTRY SEMINARS


Washington, D.C. - The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) announces a series of one-day seminars on federal regulations and compliance training specifically for new Northern California wine premises (qualified since Jan.1, 2003). The seminars will be held June 15-17 (9: 00 A.M. to 4:30 P. M.) Each session will cover recordkeeping and reports, changes after qualification, taxes, labeling and exports.

Sessions are scheduled as follows:
• Napa – June 15
• Napa - June 16
• Sacramento - June 17

Priority registration will be accepted from these new wineries through May 21. After that date, registration will be accepted from other wine premises on a space available basis. Admission is free, but registration is required. Due to limited space, we can only accommodate two attendees from each winery.

Registration will be accepted by:
• Phone (916-414-2367)
• Fax (707-523-1339)
• Email: 2004WineSeminarCal@ttb.gov
