Items not labeled as Rapid Ship or Pre-arrival may require a transfer from the warehouse to our shipping facility before shipping, which can take 4–6 business days. Learn more on the Shipping Info page.

In-store Only Items

These items are available at our location to purchase in-store, or to choose in-store pickup at checkout.

Long-term Pre-arrival Items

Long Term Pre-arrival Definition: Ordering wine directly through us from our supplier partners in Europe in advance of the item’s physical arrival in the US.

Long Term Pre-arrival  sales ensure you’re getting the best possible price and that you have also secured the product before it hits the normal retail supply chain. The lead time for Pre-arrival goods is generally 4–8 months, sometimes longer based on supply chain and the logistics of transporting goods overseas. The expectation, from our team, is to communicate to the customer the location of their purchase every step of the way.

Case Only Items

This product is offered as a full case purchase option, minimum order quantities may be applicable. When available, multiple case options will be presented. If you are purchasing a Pre-Arrival item you must order a solid case.

Rapid Ship

Items listed as "rapid ship" are in stock and available for immediate pickup or shipment. Those that do not have the "rapid ship" icon are housed with our supplier and must be transferred to our warehouse before they can be picked up or shipped. This requires 4-6 business days but usually occurs sooner. Some products will list both options of availability as there will be a certain number in stock, with the option to order additional bottles to be transferred from the supplier.

We offer FREE ground shipping and discounted upgraded shipping on orders with multiples of 12 qualifying bottles. Solid cases or mix-and-match, look for the yellow 12 FREE badge and save!

Tips for Last Minute Orders for the Holidays

Wait, what? Christmas is next week?!

Yeah, Christmas is next week. If you have waited until now, I admire your courage. But not all hope is lost! Here are your best bets for getting an order to your door ASAP:

Rapid Ship

Items in our Rapid Ship category have at least some inventory currently housed in our shipping warehouse, which means we can pack and ship those items the fastest. Please note the Availability notice next to the Add to Cart button on each product page. That will tell you specifically how many bottles are available for Rapid Ship. If you order more than that quantity, you will likely add a delay.

12 Ship Free gets you seriously discounted express shipping

Customers love our mix-and-match free ground shipping on qualifying 12 Ship Free products. But did you know you can also take advantage of this offer to get a HUGE discount on express shipping options? Just build a qualifying case, then on checkout take a look at how much you can save on 2 Day Express, or even overnight!

And above all else, remember: shipping companies are stressed, so please, please, please do not plan on a package arriving on 12/24. Place your order a few days early, you know… LIKE TODAY 🙂
