Wine Kitchen admits 27 infusions beyond county limit; board recommends third‑offense penalty

Staff told the board that a Frederick County inspector found 27 containers of infused alcohol at the Wine Kitchen, including one labeled with a "made on" date of May 1, 2026 — roughly 67 days before inspection — and that all containers were disposed at the inspector's discretion.

Director Dawn Sugars read the inspection and the establishment history and recommended treatment as a third offense, including a $750 fine, a $2.50 administrative fee, mandatory violation‑prevention training (class fee $200) with registration deadlines and one year probation. The board concurred with the recommendation and recorded a unanimous vote; staff advised the licensee of payment and class registration requirements.
