Import Tips

Obtain a certificate of analysis verifying alcoholic strength by volume over 14% at 20°C and provide proof gallon declarations for duty calculation

Label bottles with origin, varietal, and alcohol content; comply with TTB COLA requirements before retail sale

Avoid misclassification as table wine by documenting fortification process; common pitfall is under-declaring ABV leading to audits
