AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF WINE ECONOMISTS AAWE WORKING PAPER No. 48 Economics INTRODUCING WINE INTO GROCERY STORES: ECONOMIC IMPLICATIONS AND TRANSITIONAL ISSUES Bradley J. Rickard October 2009 www.wine-economics.org Introducing wine into grocery stores: Economic implications and transitional issues Bradley J. Rickard Assistant Professor Department of Applied Economics and Management Cornell University Ithaca, NY 14853 Tel: +1.607.255.7417 E-mail: [email protected] October, 2009 Abstract There has been a long history of government regulation related to wine marketing activities in the United States, and many regulations have been state-specific. For example, fifteen states currently have laws that restrict wine sales in grocery stores. Several of these states have recently proposed changes that would expand the distribution of wine; however, the economic implications of such changes are not well understood and the proposals have met significant resistance from key stakeholders. A simulation model is developed here to assess the likely effects of introducing wine into grocery stores in New York State. Results suggest that benefits would be generated for out-of- state wineries, government revenues, and in most cases the in-state wineries; wine sales at liquor stores would fall by 17% to 32% with this policy change. Simulation results are subsequently used to develop a framework for evaluating various proposals that would provide compensation to liquor store owners. Keywords: Grocery stores; New York State; Rent-seeking; Simulation model; Wine sales. JEL Classification: Q18 Introducing wine into grocery stores: Economic implications and transitional issues 1. Introduction Thirty-five states have laws that allow wine to be available in liquor stores and grocery stores (including both food stores and drug stores).

Father of Vinifera" in the Eastern United States
For four generations the Frank family has produced wines of the highest quality in the tradition of the legendary Dr. Konstantin Frank, "Father of Vinifera" in the Eastern United States. Top 100 Winery of 2019 Wine & Spirits 2018 Winery of the Year NY Wine Classic All Star Wine Brand Wine & Spirits Magazine Dr. Konstantin Frank Winery 9749 Middle Road, Hammondsport, NY 800-320-0735 www.drfrankwines.com Our Heritage Dr. Konstantin Frank Winery is a Four Generation family run business which began in 1962. Konstantin Frank ignited the “Vinifera Revolution” a movement that forever changed the course of wine in the Finger Lakes. Our Founder, Dr. Konstantin Frank Konstantin was of German heritage, born and raised in Ukraine. He held a Ph.D. in viticulture from the Polytechnic Institute of Odessa and became a successful viticulture professor and vineyard consultant. After WWII, he immigrated to the United States with his family. After a brief stay in New York City, Konstantin moved upstate to take a position at Cornell University’s Geneva Experiment Station. Dr. Frank believed from his years in Ukraine that the lack of proper rootstock, not the cold climate, was the reason for the failure of Vitis vinifera vines in the Finger Lakes region. He continued to promote his beliefs and to seek a sympathetic ear, which he found in Charles Fournier, a French champagne maker and President of nearby Gold Seal Vineyards. Communicating in French, Dr. Frank revealed to Fournier about his research for growing the delicate European vinifera grape varieties in cold climates. After purchasing some land on the western shores of Keuka Lake in 1958, Konstantin began grafting native rootstock from N.

Wine List Intro.Docx
Supplement to Wine & Gastronomy Catalogues This book list, together with my Wine & Gastronomy Catalogues (1996-2002) represents, to the best of my reconstructive ability, the complete collection built over a roughly twenty-year period ending in 1982. The Wine & Gastronomy Catalogues had been drawn from books that suffered fire and water torture in 1979. The present list also includes books acquired before and after that event, while we were living in Italy, and before I reluctantly rejected the idea of rebuilding the collection. A few of these later acquisitions were offered for sale in the catalogues, but most of them remain in my possession. They are identified here with the note “[**++].” The following additional identifiers are used in this list: [**ici] – “incomplete cataloguing information” available – “short title” detail at best. All of these books were lost or discarded. [**sold] – books sold prior to the Wine & Gastronomy series, including from my Catalogue 1, issued March 1990. [**kept] – includes bibliographies, reference books, and books on coffee, tea and chocolate, and a few others which escaped inclusion in the catalogues. All items not otherwise identified were lost or discarded. The list includes a number of wine maps, but there were a few others for which there wasn’t enough information available to justify inclusion. To the list of wine bibliographies consulted for the Wine & Gastronomy catalogues, I would like to add the extensive German bibliography by Renate Schoene, first published in 1978 as Bibliographie zur Geschichte des Weines (Mannheim, 1976), followed by three supplements (1978, 1982, 1984), and the second edition (München, 1988).
