On the night before their departure , the entire family gathers at Peter and Kate 's home , where their youngest son , Kevin , sees Florida as contradictory to Christmas , on his opinion of the lack of Christmas trees in Florida . During the school Christmas pageant , Kevin 's older brother Buzz humiliates him during his solo , causing Kevin to retaliate , thereby ruining the performance . While Buzz fakes an apology to Kevin in front of the McCallisters ( who are convinced it is sincere ) , Kevin refuses to apologize to Buzz and storms to the third floor of the house . Prior to the pageant , Peter has unknowingly caused the alarm clock to reset ; consequently , the family once again oversleeps . In the confusion they have to rush to reach the airport on time , Kevin falls behind everyone else , and mistakenly boards a flight bound for New York City while trying to replace the batteries for a Talkboy , carrying Peter 's bag containing his wallet and a large amount of money ; upon arrival in Miami , Kate realizes that Kevin is missing again . In New York , Kevin tours the city and meets a homeless woman tending to pigeons at Central Park , where he runs off . Kevin goes to the Plaza Hotel , where he tantalizes the staff into checking in with Peter 's credit card . On Christmas Eve , Kevin tours the city in a limousine and visits a toy store where he meets its philanthropic owner , Mr. Duncan . Kevin learns that the proceeds from the store 's Christmas sales will be donated to a children 's hospital . Kevin donates $20 to the hospital . As a token of appreciation , Mr. Duncan offers Kevin a pair of ceramic turtledoves as a gift , instructing him to give one to another person as a sign of eternal friendship . After running into Harry and Marv , who have recently escaped from prison and are now called `` The Sticky Bandits '' , Kevin retreats to the Plaza Hotel . The hotel 's concierge , Mr. Hector , confronts Kevin about the credit card , which has been reported stolen . Kevin flees after evading Mr. Hector , but is captured by Harry and Marv . The duo discuss plans for breaking into the toy store that night . Kevin manages to escape by pinching a woman in front of him , which results in the woman attacking the duo . Kevin 's family travels to New York after tracking the whereabouts of the stolen credit card , and Kate searches the city for Kevin . Meanwhile , Kevin goes to his uncle Rob 's townhouse , only to find the house vacant and undergoing renovations , while Rob and his family are in Paris . At Central Park , he encounters and befriends the pigeon lady . They go to Carnegie Hall , where an orchestra is performing . The pigeon lady explains how her life collapsed and how she dealt with it by taking care of the pigeons in the park . Kevin gives the pigeon lady some advice and promises that he will be her friend . Kevin , after remembering what the bandits said , returns to the townhouse , and rigs it with numerous booby traps . Kevin arrives at the toy store during Harry and Marv 's robbery and throws a brick through the window , setting off the store 's alarm . Kevin then lures the duo to the townhouse , where he springs the traps and Harry and Marv suffer various injuries . When the duo chase Kevin around the townhouse , he escapes and calls the police . Harry and Marv catch him and take him down to Central Park to kill him , but the pigeon lady sneaks in and throws birdseed on the duo , and the pigeons storm in to incapacitate them . Kevin sets off fireworks he had bought earlier to signal the police . The police arrive and arrest the bandits . At the toy store , Mr. Duncan finds a note from Kevin attached to the brick , explaining about what happened . Kate , still searching for Kevin on foot , remembers his fondness for Christmas trees . After observing Kevin making a wish at the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree , Kate meets him there , and they reconcile . On Christmas Day , a truckload of gifts arrive at the McCallisters ' hotel room from the toy store . Kevin and Buzz reconcile , and Buzz allows him to open up the first present . Kevin goes to Central Park to give the pigeon lady the second turtledove . At the Plaza , Buzz receives the bill for Kevin 's stay from Cedric and shows it to Peter . Peter suddenly calls out , `` Kevin , you spent $967 on room service ? ! '' at which point Kevin runs off .

Jessica Jones ( season 2 ) - wikipedia Jessica Jones ( season 2 ) Jump to : navigation , search Jessica Jones ( season 2 ) Promotional poster Starring Krysten Ritter Rachael Taylor Carrie - Anne Moss Eka Darville Leah Gibson J.R. Ramirez Country of origin United States Release Original network Netflix Season chronology ← Previous Season 1 List of Jessica Jones episodes The second season of the American web television series Jessica Jones , which is based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name , follows Jones as she takes on a new case after the events surrounding her encounter with Kilgrave .

Ramirez as Oscar Notable guests ( edit ) David Tennant as Kilgrave Production ( edit ) Development ( edit ) In January 2015 , Netflix COO Ted Sarandos stated that Jessica Jones the series was `` eligible to go into multiple seasons for sure '' and Netflix would look at `` how well ( they ) are addressing both the Marvel fanbase but also the broader fanbase '' in terms of determining if additional seasons would be appropriate . In July 2015 , Sarandos said some of the Defender series would `` selectively have multiple seasons as they come out of the gate , '' with series showrunner Melissa Rosenberg saying she was hopeful Jessica Jones would get an additional season before Marvel 's The Defenders . Rosenberg later expanded on this , saying that Marvel Television and Netflix were working out the placement of a potential second season , though `` ( i ) t might not be possible from a logistical standpoint '' to have a second season of Jessica Jones debut before The Defenders ; Sarandos later confirmed this to be the case , stating that the season would air after The Defenders released in 2017 . On January 17 , 2016 , Netflix ordered a second season of 13 episodes . Raelle Tucker joined the season as an executive producer and writer , replacing Liz Friedman from the first season , who departed the series to work on the pilot for the ABC series , Conviction . Writing ( edit ) Rosenberg and the season 's writers were halfway through the writing process by August 2016 , with the scripts completed by the end of October 2016 . With The Defenders releasing before the season , Rosenberg used the miniseries as an opportunity to help `` set up '' elements for the season , working with The Defenders executive producers and writers Doug Petrie and Marco Ramirez to do so . Rosenberg wanted to `` continue with ( the Jessica Jones ) character '' in the season , saying , `` She 's a very damaged character , her damage goes beyond ( David Tennant 's ) Kilgrave . There 's a lot to mine from in her backstory and in her present day situation '' . Actress Krysten Ritter said that the second season would evolve from the first , and that for Jones , `` The first season was in her head and the second season is in her heart , '' adding that Jones `` is in a pretty dark headspace '' at the beginning of the season and that the season would be `` more of an emotional thriller this time . '' On whether Tennant could return for the second season , Rosenberg said , `` Sure , when you have David Tennant , you want him around forever ... But the show is called Jessica Jones and the story is about Jessica 's arc and how does that play out in its best form ? '' It was noted that Kilgrave would be `` hard to top '' though , with Marvel Television head Jeph Loeb saying , `` One of the things that 's important about any Marvel show is your hero is often defined by how strong your antagonist is , '' with Rosenberg adding that the objective for the new villain , or villains , for the season would be not to match or do what was done with Kilgrave . As Kilgrave does appear in the season , Rosenberg felt it was important to have him return to `` be that mirror again '' for Jones , as he is `` such a part of her construction and her dilemma '' . Rosenberg also hoped to `` further expand on the ensemble and on Jessica 's world '' by giving more screen time to supporting characters , noting that in the first season , `` the trick of a show that 's called Jessica Jones ( is if ) she 's not in the scene , it 's not a guarantee that scene will end up in the final picture . You have to earn secondary character stories . You have to flesh them out enough so that they can eventually carry stories of their own '' in future seasons . She also wanted to continue to explore the relationship between Jones and Trish Walker , stating `` That is the core relationship in the piece . It is about female friendship , it is about how friends evolve -- they 're sisters , really -- and it 's about how they evolve and ping off each other . '' On Jones becoming famous after her heroics in the first season , Ritter said , `` She keeps her circle small because she does n't want people in her life , so there 's no textbook on how to deal with new popularity or new eyes on you . '' Speaking on the social issues she hoped to tackle in the season , after covering `` issues of choice , interracial relationships , domestic violence , ( and ) issues of consent '' while also exploring `` feminism and being a woman in this world '' in the first , Rosenberg said , `` I 'm not quite sure yet what the social issues are that we 're dealing with ( in season 2 ) . We 're just trying to find some resonance for ( Jessica Jones ) and a new place to push her , to give Krysten something new to play and really push the boundaries of the character . '' After much of the first season was taken from the Alias comic book , Rosenberg wanted to continue that trend with the second season , but acknowledged that `` the MCU is very different from the comics in terms of its mythology . In the books there were things building towards Civil War and all that , and here that 's not the case . The nature of that is we 're probably not going to be able to continue to do parallel storylines ( to Alias ) '' . On having Jones continue to struggle with the same issues in the second season , Loeb said , `` The end of the ( first season ) -- and it was one of the things that was very important when we talked about the end of the first ( season ) -- was that it was n't , ' Ooh , I triumphed and now I can get in my hovercar and join the Avengers . ' That was n't the story we were interested in telling . '' Rosenberg elaborated by comparing the Jessica Jones to her previous series Dexter , saying that she learned `` you can advance the character , but you never want to cure the character . With Dexter , the moment he felt guilt or accepted that he was ' bad , ' the show 's over . He 's no longer a sociopath . The equivalent for us would be if Jessica somehow recovered from the damage that had been done to her . People do n't just heal '' . She added that Jones ' killing of Kilgrave at the end of the first season was `` a life changing experience '' and something that would affect the character going forward . Rosenberg also stated that the season would be `` about digging deeper into this chaos and peeling back those layers ( of Jones ' life ) , just going to the core of her being '' after the first season focused on Jones ' trauma and facing her abuser . Casting ( edit ) After the season was ordered , several main cast members revealed that they would return for the second season , including Ritter as Jessica Jones , Rachael Taylor as Patricia `` Trish '' Walker , and Carrie - Anne Moss as Jeri Hogarth . Eka Darville also reprises his role as Malcolm Ducasse . In March 2017 , J.R. Ramirez was cast as Oscar , which was revealed in July after the airing of his character 's death on Power . By that month , Leah Gibson had also joined the cast , in the role of Ingrid . In April 2017 , Janet McTeer was cast in an undisclosed role , described as someone who has `` an enormous impact on Jessica 's life . '' In August , David Tennant was confirmed to be reprising his role as Kilgrave . Filming ( edit ) Filming began the week of April 3 , 2017 in New York City , once again using the working title Violet . This followed the end of production on The Defenders in March , with Ritter having indicated in May 2016 that the season would film back - to - back with The Defenders . Filming occurred at the Long Island Aquarium and Exhibition Center . Filming for the season wrapped on September 14 , 2017 . Approaching the second season , Rosenberg wanted to increase the number of female directors working on the series as a further push for representation . This was a goal that `` Marvel was completely on board with '' , and given the demand of many talented female directors at the time , the series ' producers looked to book only female directors first , and approach male directors later in the pre-production phase if needed . Another member of the production suggested that the series book only female directors for the season , which Rosenberg `` had n't contemplated ( as a ) concept prior to that conversation '' . She quickly made that the goal of the production , and in October 2016 , Rosenberg confirmed that all 13 episodes of the season would be directed by women . Release ( edit ) The second season of Jessica Jones is scheduled to be released on March 8 , 2018 , on the streaming service Netflix worldwide , in Ultra HD 4K and high dynamic range . Marketing ( edit ) In December 2017 , a teaser trailer for the season was released , along with announcing the season release date .

The game was then officially the AdvoCare V100 Texas Bowl from 2014 to 2016 , with AdvoCare as the title sponsor . Since 2017 , the game has been sponsored by Academy Sports + Outdoors .

The three - year contract with EV1.net expired on December 31 , 2005 , leaving the bowl game without a title sponsor . A college football official told the Houston Chronicle that the bowl was in danger of ceasing operations , as a result of the game losing its title sponsor and because the Houston Bowl still owed roughly $600,000 to the Big 12 and Mountain West conferences following the 2005 game . However , the NCAA approved Lone Star Sports & Entertainment , a division of the Houston Texans , who also play in Reliant Stadium , to take over game management . In July 2006 , the NFL Network acquired TV rights and naming rights to the bowl . Texas Bowl introduction ( edit ) The Texas Bowl name and logo were officially unveiled on August 10 , 2006 , at a press conference along with conference affiliations for the bowl spots . The Big 12 , Big East and Conference USA will be affiliated with the game , as well as Texas Christian University of the Mountain West . The 2006 matchup featured teams from the Big 12 and Big East Conferences . On December 3 , 2006 , Rutgers accepted an invitation to play Kansas State in the inaugural Texas Bowl . `` We 're ecstatic about having Rutgers , '' Texas Bowl director David Brady said . `` This is a top - 15 team that was three yards away from a BCS game . We could n't be happier to have them here . '' 2010 marked the eleventh consecutive year a bowl game has played in Houston , and the 40th year overall with a bowl game there ( the Bluebonnet Bowl lasted 29 years ) . It was also announced on December 30 , 2009 , that ESPN Plus would take over as part owner and operator of the game , while Lone Star Sports and Entertainment will maintain a stake in the bowl , and would be carried on ESPN . Sponsors ( edit ) On April 12 , 2011 , ESPN announced Meineke Car Care signed a three - year title sponsorship deal beginning in 2011 , changing name of the bowl to the Meineke Car Care Bowl of Texas . On February 12 , 2014 , it was announced that AdvoCare will be the title sponsor for the bowl game . That sponsorship concluded after the 2016 game . On November 15 , 2017 , Academy Sports + Outdoors became the new title sponsor of the bowl . Conference tie - ins ( edit ) On May 17 , 2007 , it was announced Conference USA would have a team in the 2007 Texas Bowl . The Texas Bowl has a rotating commitment with the Big East Conference and Conference USA for 2006 -- 09 while the Big 12 Conference will have a team in all four of those games . In 2007 , TCU took the place of the Big 12 team when Kansas and Oklahoma were put into the BCS , and Houston , a `` home team , '' represented C - USA . The conferences would receive $612,500 each as per the rules of the agreements as usually , the Big East ( or Big 12 ) would have received $750,000 for playing and C - USA would have received a $500,000 stipend for their team playing . Issues ( edit ) According to Sports Illustrated , in 2008 the bowl required Western Michigan University to purchase 11,000 tickets at full price in order to accept the invitation to play in the bowl . The university was only able to sell 548 tickets at that price , forcing it to accept a $462,535 loss , before travel expenses , to pay for the privilege of playing in the bowl .

Question: what is the payout for the texas bowl


American wine - wikipedia American wine Jump to : navigation , search American wine has been produced for over 300 years . Today , wine production is undertaken in all fifty states , with California producing 89 percent of all US wine . The United States is the fourth - largest wine producing country in the world after France , Italy , and Spain . The North American continent is home to several native species of grape , including Vitis labrusca , Vitis riparia , Vitis rotundifolia , and Vitis vulpina . But the wine making industry is based on the cultivation of the European Vitis vinifera , which was introduced by European settlers . With more than 1,100,000 acres ( 4,500 km ) under vine , the United States is the sixth-most planted country in the world after France , Italy , Spain , China and Turkey . Contents ( hide ) 1 History 2 Wine regions 2.1 Production by state 3 Appellation system 3.1 Appellation labeling laws 3.2 Semi-generic wines 3.3 Fighting varietals 4 Other U.S. labeling laws 5 Three - tier distribution 6 Largest producers 7 See also 8 References 9 Further reading 10 External links History ( edit ) Main article : History of American wine Sparkling wine made from a second label of Pleasant Valley Wine Company in New York which was the first bonded winery in the United States . The first Europeans to explore North America , a Viking expedition from Greenland , called it Vinland because of the profusion of grape vines they found . The earliest wine made in what is now the United States was produced between 1562 and 1564 by French Huguenot settlers from Scuppernong grapes at a settlement near Jacksonville , Florida . In the early American colonies of Virginia and the Carolinas , wine making was an official goal laid out in the founding charters . However , settlers discovered that the wine made from the various native grapes had flavors which were unfamiliar and which they did not like . This led to repeated efforts to grow the familiar European Vitis vinifera varieties , beginning with the Virginia Company exporting French vinifera vines with French vignerons to Virginia in 1619 . These early plantings met with failure as native pest and vine disease ravaged the vineyards . In 1683 , William Penn planted a vineyard of French vinifera in Pennsylvania ; it may have interbred with a native Vitis labrusca vine to create the hybrid grape Alexander . One of the first commercial wineries in the United States was founded in 1787 by Pierre Legaux in Pennsylvania . A settler in Indiana in 1806 produced wine made from the Alexander grape . Today French - American hybrid grapes are the staples of wine production on the East Coast of the United States . The Kentucky General Assembly on November 21 , 1799 passed a bill to establish a commercial vineyard and winery . The vinedresser for the vineyard was John James Dufour , formerly of Vevey , Switzerland . The vineyard was located overlooking the Kentucky River in Jessamine County in what is known as Blue Grass country of central Kentucky . Dufour named it First Vineyard on November 5 , 1798 . The vineyard 's current address in 5800 Sugar Creek Pike , Nicholasville , Kentucky . The first wine from First Vineyard was consumed by subscribers to the vineyard at John Postelthwaite 's house on March 21 , 1803 . Two 5 - gallon oak casks of wine were taken to President Thomas Jefferson in Washington , D.C. in February 1805 . The vineyard continued until 1809 , when a killing freeze in May destroyed the crop and many vines . The Dufour family abandoned Kentucky and migrated west to Vevay , Indiana , a center of a Swiss - immigrant community . In California , the first vineyard and winery was established in 1769 by the Franciscan missionary Junípero Serra near San Diego . Later missionaries carried vines northward ; Sonoma 's first vineyard was planted around 1805 . California has two native grape varieties , but they make very poor quality wine . The California Wild Grape ( Vitis californicus ) does not produce wine - quality fruit , although it sometimes is used as rootstock for wine grape varieties . The missionaries used the Mission grape . ( In South America , this grape is known as criolla or `` colonialized European '' . ) Although a Vitis vinifera variety , it is a grape of `` very modest '' quality . Jean - Louis Vignes was one of the early settlers to use a higher quality vinifera in his vineyard near Los Angeles . The first winery in the United States to become commercially successful was founded in Cincinnati , Ohio in the mid-1830s by Nicholas Longworth . He made a sparkling wine from Catawba grapes . By 1855 Ohio had 1500 acres in vineyards , according to travel writer Frederick Law Olmsted , who said it was more than in Missouri and Illinois , which each had 1100 acres in wine . German immigrants from the late 1840s had been instrumental in building the wine industry in those states . In the 1860s , vineyards in the Ohio River Valley were attacked by Black rot . This prompted several winemakers to move north to the Finger Lakes region of western New York . During this time , the Missouri wine industry , centered on the German colony in Hermann , was expanding rapidly along both shores of the Missouri River west of St. Louis . By the end of the century , the state was second to California in wine production . In the late 19th century , the phylloxera epidemic in the West and Pierce 's disease in the East ravaged the American wine industry . Prohibition in the United States began when the state of Maine became the first state to go completely dry in 1846 . Nationally , Prohibition was implemented after ratification by the states of the Eighteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution in 1920 , which forbade the manufacturing , sale and transport of alcohol . Exceptions were made for sacramental wine used for religious purposes , and some wineries were able to maintain minimal production under those auspices , but most vineyards ceased operations . Others resorted to bootlegging . Home winemaking also became common , allowed through exemptions for sacramental wines and production for home use . Following the repeal of Prohibition in 1933 , operators tried to revive the American wine making industry , which was nearly ended . Many talented winemakers had died , vineyards had been neglected or replanted with table grapes , and Prohibition had changed Americans ' taste in wines . During the Great Depression , consumers demanded cheap `` jug wine '' ( so - called dago red ) and sweet , fortified ( high alcohol ) wine . Before Prohibition dry table wines outsold sweet wines by three to one , but afterward , the ratio of demand changed dramatically . As a result , by 1935 , 81 % of California 's production was sweet wines . For decades , wine production was low and limited . Leading the way to new methods of wine production was research conducted at the University of California , Davis and some of the state universities in New York . Faculty at the universities published reports on which varieties of grapes grew best in which regions , held seminars on winemaking techniques , consulted with grape growers and winemakers , offered academic degrees in viticulture , and promoted the production of quality wines . In the 1970s and 1980s , success by Californian winemakers in the northern part of the state helped to secure foreign investment from other winemaking regions , most notably the Champenois of France . Winemakers also cultivated vineyards in Oregon and Washington , on Long Island in New York , and numerous other new locales . Americans became more educated about wines and increased their demand for high - quality wine . All 50 states now have some acreage in vineyard cultivation . By 2004 , 668 million gallons ( 25.3 million hectoliters ) of wine were consumed in the United States . Today , the U.S. produces over 800 million gallons of wine a year , of which California produces more than 84 % , followed by Washington , New York , Pennsylvania , and Oregon . In the second decade of the 21st century , the US wine industry faces the growing challenges of competition from international exports and managing domestic regulations on interstate sales and shipment of wine . Wine regions ( edit ) The Pacific Northwest includes in the winemaking regions of Washington State where varieties like Cabernet Sauvignon are grown . There are nearly 3,000 commercial vineyards in the United States , and at least one winery in each of the 50 states . West Coast -- More than 90 % of the total American wine production occurs in the states of California , Washington and Oregon . Rocky Mountain Region -- Notably Idaho and Colorado Southwestern United States -- Notably Texas and New Mexico Midwestern United States -- Notably Missouri and Illinois Great Lakes region -- Notably Michigan , northern New York and Ohio East Coast of the United States -- Notably western New York State and eastern Long Island , New Jersey , Pennsylvania , Virginia , North Carolina and Florida .

In September 1978 the Bureau of Alcohol , Tobacco and Firearms ( now Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau ) developed regulations to establish American Viticultural Areas ( AVA ) based on distinct climate and geographical features . In June 1980 , the Augusta AVA in Missouri was established as the first American Viticultural Area under the new appellation system . For the sake of wine labeling purposes , all the states and county appellations were grandfathered in as appellations . There were 187 distinct AVAs designated under U.S. law as of April 2007 . Appellation labeling laws ( edit ) In order to have an AVA appear on a wine label , at least 85 % of the grapes used to produce the wine must be grown in the AVA . With the larger state and county appellations the laws vary depending on the area . For a County Appellation , 75 % of the grapes used must be from that county . If grapes are from two or three contiguous counties , a label can have a multi-county designation so long as the percentages used from each county are clearly on the label . For the majority of U.S. States the State Appellation requires 75 % of the grapes in the wine to be grown in the state . Texas requires 75 % , but if an AVA is used like `` Texas Hill Country '' or `` Texas High Plains , '' 85 % Texas grapes must be used . California and Oregon require 100 % . If grapes are from two to three contiguous states a wine can be made under a multi-state designations following the same requirements as the multi-county appellation . American wine or United States is a rarely used appellation that classifies a wine made from anywhere in the United States , including Puerto Rico and Washington , D.C. . Wines with this designation are similar to the French wine vin de table and can not include a vintage year . By law this is the only appellation allowed for bulk wines exported to other counties . Semi-generic wines ( edit ) An example of American wines using semi-generic labels of burgundy , chablis , etc . Current U.S. laws allow American made wines to be labeled as `` American Burgundy '' or `` California champagne '' , even though these names are restricted in Europe . U.S. laws only restrict usage to include the qualifying area of origin to go with these semi-generic names . Other semi-generic names in the United States include Claret , Chablis , Chianti , Madeira , Malaga , Marsala , Moselle , Port , Rhine wine , Sauternes ( commonly spelled on U.S. wine labels as Sauterne or Haut Sauterne ) , Sherry and Tokay . European Union officials have been working with their U.S. counterparts through World Trade Organization negotiations to eliminate the use of these semi-generic names . FIGHTING varietals ( edit ) This section needs additional citations for verification . Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources . Unsourced material may be challenged and removed . ( May 2013 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) Fighting varietal is a term that originated in California during the late - 1970s as a marketing response to combat overt pressure from European wine producers . The term was coined to separate traditional domestic jug wine , whimsical brands , and imports , from premium wine production in the U.S. The U.S. dollar in the early 1980s was trading with such historic strength , it was dominating world currency markets , eventually leading to the first coordinated agreement between Central Banks in 1985 to intervene and depreciate the Dollar in what is now termed the Plaza Accord . European wines with centuries of history supporting them found it easy to compete with wine production in the U.S. on quality since the U.S. had only decades in real development of its vineyards and wine production techniques . With better quality and lower price , European wines had a substantial advantage over domestic producers which potentially slowed the growth of U.S. wine producing regions . While European consumers understood the types of grapes grown in their regions , U.S. wine consumers found European labeling standards confusing . California wineries saw that as the opportunity and coordinated together to sell varietals , named for the variety of grapes in the bottle , as a means of educating the consumer and making the product easier to understand . The actual term was coined referencing the `` fight '' against imported wines in the U.S. market using `` varietals '' instead of brands or regions for content identification . While many different people have been given credit for the origination of the term , it is unlikely a conclusive author will ever be confirmed . Other U.S. labeling laws ( edit ) In the United States , at least 95 % of grapes must be from a particular vintage for that year to appear on the label . Prior to the early 1970s , all grapes had to be from the vintage year . All labels must list the alcohol content based on percentage by volume . For bottles labeled as varietals at least 75 % of the grape must be of the variety . In Oregon , the requirement is 90 % . American wine labels are also required to list if they contain sulfites and carry the Surgeon General 's warning about alcohol consumption . Three - tier distribution ( edit ) Following the repeal of Prohibition , the United States federal government allowed each state to regulate its own production and sale of alcohol . For the majority of states this led to the development of a three - tier distribution system between the producer , wholesaler and consumer . Depending on the state there are some exceptions , with wineries allowed to sell directly to consumers on site at the winery or to ship wine across state lines . Some states allow interstate sales through e-commerce . In the 2005 case of Granholm v. Heald , the Supreme Court of the United States struck down state laws banning interstate shipments but allowing in - state sales . This Supreme Court decision meant that states could decide to allow both out - of - state wine sales and in - state sales , or ban both together . Convenience stores and retail stores are large distributors of wine , with over 175,000 outlets that sell wine across the United States . In addition , there are around 332,000 other locations ( bars , restaurants , etc . ) that sell wine , contributing to the $30 + billion in annual sales over the past three years . In 2010 , the average monthly per - store sales of wine jumped to nearly $12,000 from $9,084 in 2009 . The average gross margin dollars from wine increased to $3,324 from $2,616 in the year prior , with gross margin percentages up to an average 28.2 percent in 2010 , versus 27 percent in 2009 . Largest producers ( edit ) As of 2005 The largest producers of American wine . E & J Gallo Winery - Accounts for more than a quarter of all U.S. wine sales and is the second largest producer in the world . Constellation Brands - With foreign wine holdings Constellation is the largest producer in the world and includes Robert Mondavi Winery and Columbia Winery in its portfolio The Wine Group - San Francisco - based business which owns the Franzia box wine label , Concannon Vineyard and Mogen David kosher wine . Bronco Wine Company - Owners of the Charles Shaw wine `` Two Buck Chuck '' line which accounts for nearly 5 million of Bronco 's annual average 9 million cases per year . Diageo - UK based company with American holdings in Sterling Vineyards , Beaulieu Vineyard and Chalone Vineyard Brown - Forman Corporation - Owners of the Korbel Champagne Cellars brand Beringer Blass - Australian based wine division of Foster 's Group and owner of the Beringer wine and Stags ' Leap Winery brands Jackson Wine Estates - Owners of the Kendall - Jackson brand See also ( edit ) Wine portal American Viticultural Area Globalization of wine Judgment of Paris References ( edit ) Jump up ^ United States Department of Agriculture `` Global Wine Report August 2006 Archived April 8 , 2008 , at the Wayback Machine. , '' pp. 7 - 9 ^ Jump up to : T.
