Dewhurt’s Wine Bill Get’s Deep-Sixed

Well there’s one less thing that Austin’s fine dining restaurants have to worry about. David Dewhurst’s wine bill has quietly faded away. As if this bill had any purpose or merit whatsoever. I was stunned when it was introduced given the surfeit of legitimate financial issues the legislature is supposed to deal with. Running a fine dining restaurant is tough enough without meddling with one of the few legitimate profit centers at these places. By the way, if you must bring in your own bottle of wine, call Mirabel on Mesa.
