Teton County OKs five 24-hour off‑premise permits for Jackson Hole Winery tastings at Astoria Hot Springs
Summary
The county added five 24‑hour off‑premise manufacturer’s permits for Jackson Hole Winery to the July 21 agenda and approved them unanimously; staff flagged potential planning compliance issues for a proposed permanent satellite winery.
The Board of County Commissioners unanimously approved five 24‑hour manufacturer’s off‑premise permits submitted by Jackson Hole Winery for Astoria wine tastings at Astoria Hot Springs, 25 Johnny Counts Road, Jackson, Wyoming. The permits cover tasting events on July 27–30, 2025, and Aug. 3, 2025; each permit is valid for a 24‑hour period on the listed day.
Commissioners added the five permits as a last‑minute agenda item and approved the permits during the meeting. A commissioner noted that one of the five permit dates had already been used, and staff said the remaining four dates remain available.
During discussion, staff and commissioners said Jackson Hole Winery representatives (including Paige Byron and a Mr. Schroth) have discussed a separate plan to establish a permanent satellite winery at the Astoria Hot Springs site. Staff said the liquor permits comply with alcohol licensing rules but that a proposed permanent operation may raise planning questions, including whether it would comply with the resort master plan. Commissioners asked staff to continue coordinating with planning staff and the applicants to resolve possible planning‑compliance issues before any permanent facility is established.
