The general assembly hereby finds,
determines, and declares that Colorado has a substantial interest in promoting the
development of a viable and stable wine industry in this state. The general
assembly further finds, determines, and declares that grape cultivation is closely

cultivation and wine production are a logical supplement to, and development of,
existing agricultural business conducted in the state; that wine production has
become a significant industry in other states because of the action of state and
local governments in those areas to foster development of the industry; that a
viable wine industry can enhance Colorado's tourist industry; that some aspects of
wine industry development can best be accomplished by an industry-wide approach

responsible consumption of wine; and that the state should aid Colorado's wine
industry through research and promotion to allow the industry to realize its full
potential in this state.
