I know lots of US states have egregious liquor taxes. Alabama is particularly bad: 58% shelf price + $.45/L

  Part of that comes from having to pay tax on the barrel every year while it ages.

    I don't think Alabama is aging a lot of wine relative to the US market as a whole. It's primarily a "sin" tax. One of the few taxes in the US that can gain popular support.
