If I remember correctly, the VA wholesalers moved to dismiss the case for lack of jurisdiction, and the motion was denied. In normal English, that means that the wholesalers tried unsuccessfully to get the case thrown out.

Also, from the transcript of the oral hearing on the motion to dismiss, the judge appears to be leaning on the wine lovers' side. An example: the judge asked whether something should be done by the private industry "so that the product can be delivered to Virginians at a reasonable price as opposed to the inflated price that the ABC stores charge."

If anything else happens, I'll let you know!
