After consultation with the Wolf Administration and Pennsylvania Department of Health, the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board has announced the indefinite closure of all Fine Wine & Good Spirits stores effective at 9:00 p.m. Tuesday, March 17, to help slow the spread of the COVID-19 virus.
“This was a tremendously difficult decision to make, and we understand the disruption our store closures will have on consumers and licensees across the commonwealth,” said Board Chairman Tim Holden. “But in these uncertain and unprecedented times, the public health crisis and mitigation effort must take priority over the sale of wine and spirits, as the health and safety of our employees and communities is paramount.”
PLCB will re-evaluate its operations in several weeks, guided by the strategy developed by the Governor’s Office and the Pennsylvania Department of Health.
