Subject:  E Commerce and the sale of wine.

I support the Coalition  for Free Trade,  the Wine Institute and the American Vintners Association in their support for the sale of wine through e-commerce to all 50 states including North Carolina where such sales are currently illegal.  In fact  all products should be for sale via the internet, since forestalling the wine industry or any other industry is simply and an attempt to thwart competition.

Sincerely,

Joe  Estes
