I don't know a lot about wine (I spend my time drinking it) but I saw this in the Sunday paper and I am curious. The source was Reuters, I looked on the Reuters site but couldn't find it so I will quote...

"Grapes dried in the scorching heat of inland California could be pressed into raisin wine if the federal government approves a proposed wine labeling plan, raisin industry officials said."

What does the federal government have to do with it? Can't they just go ahead and make raisin wine if they want to?

Sure they can make whatever they want, but if they want to sell it the BATF (or whatever they are called now) needs to approve the labeling.
