Context

Dear Sir: Returned herewith is our copy of Form 1541, "Declaration of Intent to Produce Wine for Family Use." Your attention id directed to the last sentence of section 240.540 of the Federal Wine Regulations which provides: "THIS EXEMPTION DOES NOT AUTHORIZE THE PRODUCTION O WINE FORSUCH USE CONTRARY TO STATE LAW." We have been advised by authorities of your state that such production of wine is contrary to state law. Therefore, you are cautioned that although Federal law provides for production of wine free of Federal tax for family use under conditions set out on Treasury Form 1541, such production apparently would place you in violation of the laws of your state. If you desire further information relative to state requirements or restrictions, it is suggested that you communicate with the liquor licensing authority of your state. Very truly yours, Enc.
