16-4-107. Winery and importer registration. Any winery or importer of table wines which holds the appropriate license from the United States of America and which desires to distribute its table wines within this state shall apply to the department of revenue for registration on forms to be prepared and furnished by the department. Each winery will furnish the department with a copy of each container label currently used by the winery on its products imported into Montana. The department shall require such winery or importer to agree to furnish monthly and other reports concerning quantities and prices of table wine it ships into the state, names and addresses of consignees, and such other information as the department may determine to be necessary to assure that importation and distribution of table wines within this state conform to the requirements of this title. No winery or importer of table wines shall ship table wines into this state until such registration is granted by the department; and such registration may be cancelled or suspended by the department upon a finding after notice and hearing that the registrant has not complied with the terms of its registration.
