Can you ship a bottle of wine from CA to CT?

Answer 1

Yes. If you are asking this question here, you'll want to ask your wine vendor (or a good courier/shipping service) about packaging and documentation requirements to ship that bottle safely and legally.

Answer 2

Yes, if you have a Direct Wine Shipper's Permit. There is no cost for the permit, so getting one is kind of a no-brainer if the winery cares about expanding its potential market. There are limitations on how much can be sent (2 cases per month per customer, if I remember properly).

I'm not certain what the laws are regarding a private individual sending a bottle of wine to a friend.

Answer 3

FedEx and UPS don't allow individuals to ship wine. Neither does the post office. Licensed parties can get a contract with UPS that allows them to ship wine, but that's limited by state laws.

Answer 4

Consumers in CT can have wine shipped to them for personal consumption, the limit is two cases every two months.

Answer 5

Yes - just received my shipment from Peju Winery in Napa.

Answer 6

Answer 7

The post office, FedEx, or UPS.
