Import Tips
• Label with exact ABV determined at 20°C; discrepancies can lead to duty recalculation or penalties
• Use food-grade containers compliant with FDA; inspect for leaks as bulk wine is prone to contamination claims
• File with proof gallon equivalents early; under-declaring proof leads to CBP audits
