Frequently asked questions

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

18,120 businesses hold a federal Winery Basic Permit from the TTB, about 22% of all 84,273 federal alcohol permits.

Which state has the most wineries?

California leads with 6,400 wineries, ahead of Washington (1,430) and Texas (1,013).

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 August 2026, public U.S. government data.

Reading a dense book wineries class led by California

18,120 federal wineries (22% of all alcohol permits) cluster in California with 6,400 holders (35% of this class), ahead of Washington (1,430). Federal Basic Permits authorize FAA Act activity, not retail sale, and are not a substitute for the state ABC license.
