27 Wine & Grape Council Q & A Questions submitted from NC wineries and Answers from Joe Neely, Chair of the NC Wine & Grape Council Question: Why has North Carolina not gotten behind an industry which could generate THOUSANDS of tax revenue dollars by teaming with the industry instead of against it? Virginia identifies the wineries with free road side signs attracting tourists to the winery sites. The state benefits from the tax dollars gleaned from non state residents. Why is North Carolina so behind? Why do they not want the out-ofstate tax dollars? Answer: The Wine & Grape Council promotes all wineries heavily with billboards throughout the state and offers cooperative billboard opportunities. The council also does advertising, marketing and public relations for wineries both locally and nationally. The winery road signs are up to the individual winery s choice and responsibility. Question: How will North Carolina s current budget crisis further impact the Wine & Grape Council, its mission, and its public relations programs? Answer: The council does not have its budget yet for The state budget is still being finalized in the House and Senate. We hope to continue our same efforts next year but we don t know how we will be affected until the final budget comes out. Question: What is the Wine & Grape Council s position on the proposed state excise tax increase on wine? Answer: The council did submit a letter to Governor Perdue on behalf of the NC wine industry promoting the economic impact of our wine industry to the state and how such taxes could effect it. However, the current budget proposed by the NC House of Representatives does not contain any new taxes on wine. The council can only wait and see what happens with the final budget.
