   11  Notwithstanding any other provision of law, a restaurant

   13  remove one unsealed bottle of wine for consumption off the
   14  premises if the patron has purchased a full course meal
   15  consisting of a salad or vegetable, entree, a beverage, and
   16  bread and consumed a portion of the bottle of wine with such
   17  meal on the restaurant premises. A partially consumed bottle of
   18  wine that is to be removed from the premises must be securely
   19  resealed by the licensee or its employees before removal from
   20  the premises. The partially consumed bottle of wine shall be
   21  placed in a bag or other container that is secured in such a
   22  manner that it is visibly apparent if the container has been
   23  subsequently opened or tampered with, and a dated receipt for
   24  the bottle of wine and full course meal shall be provided by the
   25  licensee and attached to the container. If transported in a
   26  motor vehicle, the container with the resealed bottle of wine
   27  must be placed in a locked glove compartment, a locked trunk, or
   28  the area behind the last upright seat of a motor vehicle that is
