Before prohibition, Kentucky was the 3rd largest grape and wine producing state in the country. In recent years, the industry has rebounded dramatically with over 70 licensed wineries and nearly 150 grape producers (visitlex.com). According to wineamerica.org, in 2022 the total economic impact of wineries in Kentucky was approximately $1.63 billion.
