Under the authority of the IRC at 26
U.S.C. 5357, 5368, 5388, and 5662, the TTB regulations require that
proprietors identify wine kept on bonded premises with certain
marks or labels placed on containers, such as tanks, barrels, bins,
pallets, and cases, and that proprietors label wine bottles and
other consumer containers with certain information, such as brand
name, type of wine, and alcohol content, prior to removal for
consumption or sale. While the marking and labeling of wine
containers by proprietors is a usual and customary business
practice, the regulatory requirements to display these marks and
labels are necessary to protect the revenue. The marks on tanks,
barrels, bins, pallets, cases, and other containers identify the
content of the containers to protect the Federal government’s
revenue interest prior to removal of the wine from bonded premises.
The accurate labeling of wine bottles and other consumer containers
identifies the wine at the time of its removal from bond coverage
and thereby helps to ensure that the correct Federal excise tax
will be collected.
