1. A person shall not cause the manufacture, importation, or sale of wine in this state unless a certificate or permit as provided in this subchapter, or a liquor control license as provided in subchapter I of this chapter, is first obtained which authorizes that manufacture, importation, or sale.
2. Any person of legal age may manufacture wine for personal use without a class “A” wine permit, subject to the requirements of this subsection. Such wine may be consumed on the premises or removed from the premises where it was manufactured only if the wine is not sold, exchanged, bartered, dispensed, or given in consideration of purchase for any property or services or in evasion of the requirements of this chapter.
3. Notwithstanding subsection 1, an individual of legal age may import into the state without a certificate, permit, or license an amount of wine not to exceed nine liters per calendar month that the individual personally obtained outside the state or, in the case of wine personally obtained outside the United States, a quantity which does not exceed the amount allowed by federal law governing the importation of alcoholic beverages into the United States for personal consumption. Wine imported pursuant to this subsection shall be for personal consumption in a private home or other private accommodation and only if the wine is not sold, exchanged, bartered, dispensed, or given in consideration of purchase for any property or services or in evasion of the requirements of this chapter.
