And just to prove that Tennessee is not without its own stupid laws, it turns out that it is a crime for a private citizen to transport any amount of alcohol into the state.
So, if a Tennessee resident were to drive to Virginia, and stumble across a small, not-widely-distributed winery, and grab even a single bottle to take home, he would have just committed a misdemeanor. If he got enough bottles of wine to total to over three gallons (15 bottles – not unheard of, if you like a wine enough to buy a case), he just became a felon.
Yeah, because that makes sense.
Just something else to write my legislators over…
