According to TTB, Modus Operandi Cellars, LLC, a bonded winery in St. Helena, California, was served a one day suspension of its basic permit. In its press release, TTB said, “over the course of almost two years, Modus Operandi Cellars, LLC, engaged in consignment sales of wine to wholesalers who were not obligated to pay for the wine until after it had been sold to retailers. Consignment sales arrangements, like other unlawful trade practices, are used to gain an unfair advantage over law-abiding industry members and ultimately limit consumer choice.”
