  • Alabama
  • Arkansas

  • Indiana
  • Kentucky
  • Louisiana
  • Mississippi
  • New Jersey

Adult Signature Requirement: We strongly suggest shipping your order to a business address whenever possible. State law, as well as FedEx policy, requires an adult signature (at least 21 years of age) at the time of delivery for every package containing wine. It is the shipper's responsibility to ensure an adult is available to sign for the shipment at delivery. Shipments will not be delivered under the following circumstances:

  • The recipient is not 21 years of age or older or does not have an acceptable form of ID such as a driver's license, passport or birth certificate.
  • The recipient shows signs of intoxication.

Important Shipping Updates

Heat & Weather Conditions: Because of our sensitivity to the temperature variances that can occur during the summer months, we generally ship Monday through Wednesday during periods of high heat (above 85°F) to ensure same week delivery. We also have the ability to include gel packs to protect packages from heat spikes. We may, at times, contact customers to consult on overnight shipping or a holding the shipment back to ensure the integrity of their wines.
