Importers of Still Wine of Fresh Grapes and Alcohol-Arrested Grape Must paid $28.9M in duties in July 2026 — an effective duty rate of 8.2% on $351.9M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: July 2026 dataStill (non-sparkling) wines of fresh grapes and grape must whose fermentation has been halted by alcohol addition—such as mistelle—form the core of US wine import volume, spanning dry table wines through fortified styles like port and sherry. TTB administers label approval and importer permitting, while CBP applies tariff-rate treatment that can vary by container size (bulk versus bottled) and alcohol content. Bulk wine imports, which are bottled domestically after entry, follow a distinct commercial pathway from finished bottled product and may face different duty treatment. Importers handling fortified styles should confirm that alcohol content declarations align with TTB's standards of identity for the specific wine type.

Yes. CBP applies different duty rates to wine imported in containers above a certain volume threshold (typically above two liters) versus wine in retail-sized bottles. Importers sourcing bulk wine for domestic bottling operations should confirm the applicable rate for their container size with a licensed customs broker before shipment.
Alcohol-arrested grape must (mistelle) is unfermented or partially fermented juice to which alcohol has been added before significant fermentation occurs, preserving residual sugar. Finished fortified wines like port undergo fermentation first, with alcohol added to arrest it at a specific point. The distinction affects both classification and TTB standards of identity, so the production record from the foreign producer is an important supporting document.
