Frequently asked questions

How many wineries are federally permitted in the U.S.?

18,038 businesses hold a federal Winery Basic Permit from the TTB, about 22% of all 83,590 federal alcohol permits.

Which state has the most wineries?

California leads with 6,399 wineries, ahead of Washington (1,422) and Texas (1,009).

Are breweries counted here?

No. Breweries do not hold an FAA Basic Permit, they file a Brewer's Notice under the Internal Revenue Code, which is protected from disclosure, so they are not in the public TTB List of Permittees.

Where does this data come from?

The TTB FOIA "List of Permittees," published April 2025, public U.S. government data.
