It depends.

Some supply houses (wine.com, for one) will, others will not. Most vineyards won't.

If you're doing the shipping then its fine.

Can you ship wine 3 bottles of wine from Massachusetts to North Dakota?

The answer is "sort of". Massachusetts wine laws are very restrictive and the troubles can be broken down to a few categories: Who is allowed to ship: Not positive but I believe it is just wineries that produce less than 30,000 gallons of wine a year (that happens to be just over the maximum amount produced by a Massachusetts winery). Packaging: If you want to ship wine in Massachusetts it must be packaged in polystyrene or in molded cardboard. The package must be labeled: "This package contains alcohol. Adult signature and proof of identification that recipient is 21 years of age or older is required for delivery." Who will take your shipment: This can be the hardest part. UPS will not accept delivery from or to Massachusetts (http://www.ups.com/content/us/en/resources/ship/packaging/guidelines/wine.html#Wine+Contract+Addendum+A+%2D+UPS+Origin+and+Destination+States+for+Wine+Shipments). FedEX rules are a bit different (http://www.fedex.com/us/wine/who.html) and say that you need to be a licensed wine dealer, but they are not consistent within their site. The main problem with FedEX is that only ground is allowed to ship wine in Massachusetts (https://www.dmz.fedex.com/cgi-bin/wineShipping.cgi?State=MA) and I have also seen a statement, which I cannot find now, that they only accept shipment from an automated drop-off. DHL has been the best bet for shipping wine to and from Massachusetts but has very recently decided to stop the practice. I believe they will stop on November 3rd 2008 (http://shipcompliantblog.com/blog/2008/10/06/dhl-to-cease-wine-shipments-nov-3rd/). North Dakota Restrictions: You can ship up to 27 liters per month to a North Dakota resident but you need to get a $50 permit within 30 days of shipping the wine. The wine must be for "personal adult use". You may also be required to send tax information as well (http://wi.shipcompliant.com/StateDetail.aspx?StateID=339). Alternative methods: Pretty much all states allow shipping of alcohol for testing purposes. If you mark the package as Laboratory Test Samples you may be able to ship it from/to anywhere. It is up to you how you feel about it. Person to Person, most people ship wine to friends or relatives without marking what is in the package. A don't ask don't tell policy that will work almost all of the time. If you are purchasing the wine from a vendor in a major wine-producing state you can have them ship it directly to North Dakota and you should be fine. You will not be able to wrap them up nicely but you will get them there. Changes: The laws are changing all of the time. The United States Supreme Court struck down the interstate shipping prohibitions on wine and it is taking time for each court case to be challenged. Most of the states with restrictions have adopted new laws to restrict wine shipments that are also being battled out. There are several groups trying to fight the restrictive state laws (generally sponsored by the wholesalers). The easiest to find was (http://www.freethegrapes.org/). Good luck.

What is the best way to ship a bottle of wine?

I believe you need a license to ship wine. UPS does offer wine shipping to authorized wine shippers, so I would try UPS.com for more information. If you'd like to become authorized to ship wine I would suggest asking UPS how that might be done.
